Real-time systems are those with particular requirements for timeliness or responsiveness, often with the constraint of hard deadlines. Such systems are often found in safety-critical applications. The Rational Unified Process describes the following additional artifacts intended specifically to meet the demands of developing such systems:
These additional artifacts are stereotypes of class and are part of the design model. They support the particular approach for real-time system development defined in the Rational Unified Process, which is based on ideas presented in the textbook Real-Time Object-Oriented Modeling . [1]
