1. The Office of Naval Research recently held (Oct 26, 1990) a
workshop on real-time systems, in which every ONR grant recipient
presented their results over the last few years. The proceedings
summarizes ONR-funded research well, however, it may not be easy to
get a hold of these proceedings (don't ask me how; I don't own one).
2. Hard Real-Time Systems, John Stankovic and Krithi Ramamritham IEEE
CS Press Tutorial, ISBN 0-8186-0819-6, IEEE Catalog No. 819. $36.
This is a collection of "fundamental papers" dealing with real-time
systems, over the last 20 years. Its introduction, the only original
part of this work, was ghost - written by dozens of leading
researchers in real-time systems. It does a good job of explaining
the problems that need to be addressed in real-time systems research.
3. There is is a workshop, every spring, on real-time systems,
sponsored by the IEEE (I think). There is also a European Euromicro
Real-Time workshop, published in June.
