Abstract
In many real-time control applications, periodic activities represent the major computational demand in the system. Periodic tasks typically arise from sensory data acquisition, low-level servoing, control loops, action planning, and system monitoring. Such activities need to be cyclically executed at specific rates, which can be derived from the application requirements. Some specific examples of real-time applications are illustrated in Chapter 11.
