Simulation of Real-Time Systems

Abstract

This article presents the development of a real-time system simulator and discusses the results obtained through its application. The simulator is designed in accordance with the fundamental principles of real-time systems, incorporating traffic sources that generate both hard and soft data streams. Hard data streams demand stringent transmission conditions, such as minimal latency beyond what is required for essential operations to ensure accurate data transmission. Conversely, soft data streams allow for variations in transmission parameters. The simulator was developed using the event scheduling approach and implemented in the C++ programming language.
