What does the 'task deadline' represent in real-time systems?
What does the 'task deadline' represent in real-time systems?
- The minimum separation between successive instances of a task
- The maximum allowed time for a task to complete its execution (correct)
- The time interval between successive instances of the task
- The point at which a new instance of the task becomes available for execution
How can deadlines be expressed in real-time systems?
How can deadlines be expressed in real-time systems?
- As the maximum allowed time for a task to complete its execution (correct)
- As the point at which a new instance of the task becomes available for execution
- As the minimum inter-arrival time between successive instances of a task
- As a specific timestamp indicating the task's release time
