Dear Sir/Mam
  We are using Linux in one of our embedded products.This is the first time we 
are  working in this Platform.We have few doubts regarding implementing s/w 
timers & how  to pass the  timer interrupts to threads .
 In net we coudnt find exactly what we want .Could you please help us in this 
regard?

Ideas from us
1. If we want a thread to execute at particular intervals should it be done 
only through 
usleep()  system call ? Will it be accurate enough ? 
Because it is a real time design for a Medical Product.

2. If we use kernel timers to invoke at particular time intervals using 
add_timer () how to  pass on to the application that the time has elapsed?

A piece of code demonstartion would be much more helpful to us 

Thanks & Regards,
