#87946 - Real Time Info
Responding to: ???'s previous message

We often hear the expression "real-time" but what does it really mean? These days, is it about as clear as "mixed signal"? or worse? Thanks- Bill


If you want to find out more about real time, what it means and so on then a good place to start is the real time FAQ which you can find at http://www.faqs.org/faqs/realtime-computing/faq/

Under the 'What is Real Time' heading this says 'There are several definitions of real-time, most of them contradictory. Unfortunately the topic is controversial, and there doesn't seem to be 100% agreement over the terminology.'

No wonder people disagree about it.
