Electrical Engineering Real-Time Systems Design and Analysis An Engineer’s Handbook, Second Edition IEEE Press is pleased to bring you this second edition of Phillip A. Laplante’s bestselling, practical guide to building real-time systems. Unlike any other book in the field, Real-Time Systems Design and Analysis provides a holistic, systems-based approach devised to help engineers write problem-solving software. Dr. Laplante incorporates a survey of related technologies and their histories with time-saving practical tips, hands-on instructions, Pascal code, and insights into decreasing ramp-up times. Features of this new edition include:
- An additional chapter on real-time applications
- New material, figures, diagrams, and code
- Additional insights, new concepts
- An annotated reference reading list
- An expanded glossary
Real-Time Systems Design and Analysis is essential for students and practicing software engineers who want improved designs, faster computation, and ultimate cost savings. IEEE Press Order No. PC5383 ISBN 0-7803-3400-0 IEEE Computer Society Press Order No. BP07732
