Abstract :
The paper presents a detailed description of the Real-Time conditions for the virtual instrumentation. The aspects of the computer measurements system are explained and the soft Real-Time mode is found to be the most likely to achieve. The requirements for it are shown, then the experiments verify the approach, resulting in certain conditions for the designers. The premises for the future research arc also included.
