About this title

Synopsis

This book describes state-of-the-art techniques for designing real-time computer systems. The author shows how to estimate precisely the effect of cache architecture on the execution time of a program, how to dispatch workload on multicore processors to optimize resources, while meeting deadline constraints, and how to use closed-form mathematical approaches to characterize highly variable workloads and their interaction in a networked environment.  Readers will learn how to deal with unpredictable timing behaviors of computer systems on different levels of system granularity and abstraction.
