Title:
TIME INTERVAL INFORMING SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3169736
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PURPOSE: To make it possible to highly accurately report time interval passage after the lapse of a requested time interval independently of the processing speed of a computer.
CONSTITUTION: At the time of initializing the computer, a measuring means 1 practically measures an execution time of an instruction sequence performed by a reception means 4 and a time interval request setting means 14, i.e., a time from the reception of a time interval information request up to the end of time interval setting processing. The measured time is stored in a processing time storing area 3 by a processing time setting means 2. When a means 4 receives the time interval informing request from a user task 11 after the initialization, the means 14 finds out time for reporting time interval passage based upon the request receiving time, the time interval included in the request and the time stored in the area 3 and sets up the found time in a time interval request storing area 9. When it arrives at the time set up in the area 9, a time interval passage informing means 10 reports the time interval passage to the user task 11.
