Some consideration on real-time behavior of concurrent programs

Some basic semantic issues of a language for a reliable and provably correct real-time programs are discussed. The language is based on E.W. Dijkstra's guarded commands and on a proposal by V.H. Haase (1981). Haase's proposal is assessed, its semantic consistencies are shown, and corrections are proposed that give a sound basis for a real-time language based on guarded commands.<
