Summary
Summary
A reference guide to the semantics, extensions, and modifications to the Java programming language that enable the Java platform to meet the requirements and constraints of real-time system predictability, performance, and capabilities. The specification APIs, methods, and classes are covered, as are such subjects as scheduling, memory management, synchronization, asynchronous thread termination, and physical memory access. The authors begin with a caveat that this is a preliminary work on an new technology. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
Author Notes
Greg Bollella of IBM leads the Real-Time for Java Expert Group under the Java Community Process#65533;.
James Gosling is a Fellow and Chief Technology Officer of Sun's Developer Products group, the creator of the Java programming language, and one of the computer industry's most noted programmers. He is the 1996 recipient of Software Development's "Programming Excellence Award." He previously developed NeWS, Sun's network-extensible window system, and was a principal in the Andrew project at Carnegie Mellon University, where he earned a Ph.D. in computer science.
