Abstract

The behavior of a real-time cluster must be based on timely information about the state of its physical environment and the state of other cooperating clusters. Real-time data is temporally accurate for a limited real-time interval only. If real-time data is used outside this application specific time interval, the system will fail. It is the objective of this chapter to investigate the temporal relations among state variables in the different parts of a cyber-physical system.
