Abstract

For error handling of data communications between first and second tasks in a data transmission interval, where first time intervals and second time intervals are predefined for the first and second tasks, respectively, the data transmission interval is omitted in one of the second time intervals when (1) execution of the first task immediately prior to the current second time interval, which began in a first time interval, during an immediately preceding second interval, continues past an end point of that first time interval, and an execution of the second task of the current second interval has begun, or (2) execution of the second task, which began in an immediately preceding one of the second intervals, continued past an end point of the preceding second interval and an execution of the first task the current second interval has already begun.
