Description: Time-triggered systems are a type of real-time system that relies on executing tasks at regular intervals or specific moments, rather than depending on external events. This means that tasks are executed according to a predefined schedule, allowing for precise control over execution timing and process synchronization. These systems are essential in applications where timeliness is critical, such as in industrial control systems, process automation, and embedded systems. The main characteristics of time-triggered systems include predictability, priority determination, and the ability to handle multiple tasks simultaneously. Predictability ensures that tasks are completed within the stipulated time, while priority determination allows more critical tasks to be executed first. Additionally, these systems often include mechanisms to manage workload and optimize resource usage, thus ensuring efficient and reliable performance.
