Learning outcomes
Having passed the course, the student recognizes a real-time system and knows methods to ensure that the system functions according to the timing requirements set to it. In particular, the student knows the most important of the widely used real-time scheduling methods, their properties, and ways to verify, if the system employing the scheduling method fulfills its real-time requirements or not.
