  abstract=      "Toc is an experimental programming language based on occam
     that
combines CSP-based concurrency with integrated
     specification of timing
requirements. In contrast to occam
     with strict round-robin scheduling,
the Toc scheduler is
     lazy and does not run a process unless there is a
deadline
     associated with its execution. Channels propagate
     deadlines
to dependent tasks. These differences from occam
     necessitate a
different approach to programming, where a new
     concern is to avoid
dependencies and conflicts between
     timing requirements. This paper
introduces client-server
     design patterns for Toc that allow the
programmer precise
     control of timing. It is shown that if these
patterns are
     used, the deadline propagation graph can be used to
provide
     sufficient conditions for schedulability. An
     alternative
definition of deadlock in deadline-driven
     systems is given, and it is
demonstrated how the use of the
     suggested design patterns allow the
absence of deadlock to
     be proven in Toc programs. The introduction of
extended
     rendezvous into Toc is shown to be essential to
     these
patterns."
