Method for Testing the Real-Time Capability of an Operating System

摘要

A method that tests the real-time behavior of an operating system having a first time system (e.g., a SMI tracer real-time extension) responsible for the real-time behavior of the operating system, wherein a test routine is periodically called for execution and the actual point in time of execution of the test routine is compared with an expected periodic point in time of execution of the test routine.
