Abstract
In most embedded, real-time applications, processes need to satisfy various important constraints and dependencies, such as release times, offsets, precedence relations, and exclusion relations. Embedded, real-time systems with high assurance requirements often must execute many different types of processes with such constraints and dependencies. Some of the processes may be periodic and some of them may be asynchronous. Some of the processes may have hard deadlines and some of them may have soft deadlines. For some of the processes, especially the hard real-time processes, complete knowledge about their characteristics can and must be acquired before run-time. For other processes, prior knowledge of their worst case computation time and their data requirements may not be available. It is important for many embedded real-time systems to be able to simultaneously satisfy as many important constraints and dependencies as possible for as many different types of processes as possible. In this paper, we discuss what types of important constraints and dependencies can be satisfied among what types of processes. We also present a method which guarantees that, for every process, no matter whether it is periodic or asynchronous, and no matter whether it has a hard deadline or a soft deadline, as long as the characteristics of that process are known before run-time, then that process will be guaranteed to be completed before predetermined time limits, while simultaneously satisfying many important constraints and dependencies with other processes.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
