Chapter 12. Timed Systems

The programs we have developed in the previous chapters of this book are not explicitly concerned with the passage of time. We have used delays to make the execution of example programs viewable in a convenient way, however the correct operation of these programs is independent of time. Correctness depends on performing actions in a certain order and not on performing an action by a certain time. This has the advantage that the programs work safely, independently of processor speed and thread scheduling.

In this chapter, we develop programs that are concerned with the passage of time and in which correctness does depend on performing actions by specific times. In general, we deal with the relationship between the time at which program actions are executed and the time that events occur in the real world. We make the simplifying assumption that program execution proceeds sufficiently quickly such that, when related to the time between external events, it can be ignored. For example, consider a program that detects double mouse clicks. The program notes the time that passes between successive mouse clicks and causes a double-click action to be executed when this is less than some specified period. The inter-click time for such a program would be specified in tenths of a second, while the instructions necessary to recognize clicks and measure the inter-click time would require tenths of a millisecond. In modeling and developing such a program, it is reasonable ...

Julian F.

Head of Cybersecurity

I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.

Addison B.

Field Engineer

I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.

Amir M.

Data Platform Tech Lead

I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
