     96Each period is divided into two consecutive phases.  The period starts with the
     97active phase of the task and is followed by the inactive phase of the task.  In
     98the inactive phase the task is blocked and waits for the start of the next
     99period.  The inactive phase is skipped in case of a period miss.  The wall time
     100includes the time during the active phase of the task on which the task is not
     101executing on a processor.  The task is either blocked (for example it waits for
     102a resource) or a higher priority tasks executes, thus preventing it from
     103executing.  In case the wall time exceeds the period time, then this is a
     104period miss.  The gap between the wall time and the period time is the margin
     105between a period miss or success.
