Abstract

For error handling of data communications, in a transmission interval, between first and second tasks for which first and second time intervals are respectively predefined, (1) execution of the first task is omitted in a pending instance of the second time interval responsive to where the transmission interval immediately prior to the pending instance of the second time interval began in, and continued past an end point of, a most recent instance of the first time interval, which was during an immediately preceding instance of the second time interval; or (2) execution of the second task is omitted in the pending instance of the second time interval responsive to where a most recent prior execution of the second task began in, and continued past an end point in time of, a most recent instance of the second time interval immediately prior to the pending instance of the second time interval.
