Indeed. This is just about user interfaces driven by remote events. There are patterns for "real time". Things such as: - What matters is the slowest case, not the average case. - What has to be real time, and what can run in background? - Avoiding priority inversions. - Is there a stall timer that trips if you miss the control loop timing? What happens when the stall timer trips? - What influence do caches have on time repeatability? What's the worst case? Can you keep the worst case from being the nothing-in-cache case?
