  2. What is a Real-Time System? • Real-time systems have a dual notion of correctness: • Logical correctness (“it does the right thing”); • Temporal correctness (“it does it on time”). • Predictability is more important than performance. • Example: A robot arm picking up objects from a conveyor belt. Why are real-time systems important for automotive safety? Automotive control systems have strict timing constraints that must be guaranteed and verified at design time.
