Filling this gap, Rico Picone, Joseph Garbini, and Cameron Devine provide mechanical engineers and engineering students with a comprehensive introduction to real-time computing that integrates theory and application. The book presents the key ideas required to realize mechatronic systems that include real-time computers as functional components. Learning is organized around a sequence of nine hands-on laboratory exercises. Topics include scheduling, interrupts, timing, real-time operating systems, computer hardware, C programming, device drivers, algorithms, digital electronics, communication, amplifiers, encoders, finite state machines, discrete dynamic systems, and digital feedback control. Leading readers through the process of designing and implementing real-time systems while applying the architecture and resources of a modern real-time development environment, this text provides an essential foundation that can be implemented and extended throughout an engineering career.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe first real-time computing textbook designed for mechanical engineers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffers hands-on instruction in the design and programming of real-time mechatronic systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduces fundamental computing and programing topics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes detailed coverage of user interaction, real-time program organization, timing control, and interface hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for advanced undergraduate and first-year graduate students as well as for self-study\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n                                    \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                                    \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRico A.
