These include: * Simple_Cyclic_Task: a simple cyclic task that executes a given operation at a constant frequency * Simple_Sporadic_Task: a sporadic task released by software invocations with a constant minimum inter-release time (in the worst case, its behavior is identical to a cyclic task) * Sporadic_Server: a sporadic server that buffers a single type of request (carrying input parameters) and executes it enforcing a constant minimum inter-release time * Sporadic_Server_With_Callback: a pattern that demonstrates how to model an asynchronous Refers to events that are not synchronized, or coordinated, in time. The following are considered asynchronous operations. The interval between transmitting A and B is not the same as between B and C. The ability to initiate a transmission at either end. call with "out" parameters in Ravenscar. * Multiple_Queue_Sporadic_Server: a Sporadic_Server variant that accepts multiple kinds of requests * Sporadic_Server_With_Timeout: a Sporadic_Server variant that provides for the automated release of the server, if it is not released within a given amount of time by an explicit software invocation invocation, n a prayer requesting and inviting the presence of God. .
