Abstract
The invention relates to a real-time computer system for controlling a technical device, the real-time computer system comprising data acquisition components which are independent of each other, as well as non-secure data processing components for processing sensor data. A time server as well as a first communication system and a second communication system independent of it are provided, the time server periodically sending global time signals to the communication systems. Each data acquisition component has two communication controllers, wherein each data acquisition component is connected by two communication controllers via a communication line to the first communication system, and is connected by another communication controller to the second communication system via a communication line, such that each data acquisition component can transmit its sensor data to each of the two communication systems.
