Abstract
A real-time system is a (computer) system which is required by its specification to adhere not only to functional requirements, but also to temporal requirements, often also called “timing constraints” or “deadlines”. These requirements are typically of the form “complete this computation by 3 o’clock” or “react to this event within x seconds”.
