Ninth Euromicro Workshop on Real Time Systems

The keynote lecture is on information technologies research and real- time aspects in the telecommunication industry. The other 38 papers discuss such topics as a prototype for interprocess communication support, the analysis and evaluation of a real-time horticultural autonomous vehicle system, hybrid instruction cache partitioning for preemptive real-time systems, the static scheduling of pipelined periodic tasks in distributed real-time systems, timing specification and rule-based systems, handling precedence constraints with neural- network based real-time scheduling algorithms, and supporting timeliness and security in real-time database systems.
