rtcvis 0.1.0

Tool for visualizing Real Time Calculus (RTC) operations

rtcvis

rtcvis is an educational tool that can create interactive visualizations for convolution operations in the min-plus algebra, such as needed for real time calculus (RTC). RTC is a method for performance analysis of real time systems. Note that rtcvis cannot be used for performance analysis however, since it only supports finite curves - for this purpose, you can use the RTC toolbox from ETH Zurich. Please note that I'm in no way affiliated with and that this project is in no way endorsed by ETH Zurich.

Installation

pip install rtcvis

Usage

from rtcvis import plot_conv

plot_conv()

Curve Syntax

Curves can be specified using a syntax similar to the one from RTC toolbox:

[(x, y, m), ...], l

• The first argument is a list of points: x and y are the coordinates of this points and m is the slope of the line section starting at this point
• l is the length of the curve, or, in other words, the x coordinate at which the curve ends

Note that

• Curves have to start at x=0
• Curves are allowed to have discontinuities

Development
