Chapter 8 AutoCode Sim Cdelay Scheduler
AutoCode Reference 8-8 ni.com
Now the inherent problem in the standard scheduler is clear. From launch
to output posting, you suffer a two-cycle delay for triggered tasks, and a
three-cycle delay for enabled tasks, instead of the standard unit cycle delay
present on real-time hardware for free-running periodic tasks. Your goal
will be to reduce both of these latencies to single-cycle delays. The
scheduler pipeline stages in the Sim Cdelay AutoCode scheduler are shown
in Figure 8-4.
