This book provides an in-depth analysis of the requirements for designing and implementing real-time embedded systems and discusses how these requirements are met by current languages and operating systems. The comparative advantages of Ada 95, Real-Time Java and Real-Time POSIX are discussed in full. No other book on real-time programming languages (or concurrent programming languages) covers this range of topics. The latest trends in real-time systems are discussed. The emergence of Java as a real-time language through the Real-Time Java extensions has resulted in the treatment of Java as one of the core languages covered in the book. The additional real-time facilities in POSIX are explored as well as the proposed extensions to CORBA to address real-time issues.

How do real-time systems differ from normal information systems? Which languages are best for implementing different real-time systems?
The third edition of this best-selling text on real-time systems answers these and other questions. It provides an in-depth analysis of the requirements for designing and implementing real-time embedded systems, and discusses how these requirements are met by current languages and operating systems. The languages are not only described, but also critically evaluated. No other book on real-time (or concurrent) programming languages covers the same breadth of material.
