 \noindent where \texttt{i} is the task index (from 1 to \texttt{n}
 included), \texttt{t} is the arrival time, and \texttt{reld} is the
 relative deadline; an absolute deadline will be drawn at \texttt{t +
-  reld}.
+  reld}. If you only want to draw absolute deadlines, you can simply use the following command:
+\begin{verbatim}
+\TaskDeadline{i}{t}
+\end{verbatim}
+\noindent that works in the same way as \verb+\TaskArrival{i}{t}+.
+
 
 In this example there are a lot of repetitions. These can be avoided
-if you use the \texttt{multido} macro from the \texttt{multido} package, as shown in the example of
-Figure \ref{fig:ex1a}.
+if you use the periodic versions of some commands, as shown in the example of
+Figure \ref{fig:ex1a}. Available periodic versions of the commands can be found in Table~\ref{tab:periodic_versions}. The periodic versions take two additional arguments corresponding to the period and to the number of instances desired.
