There are many papers that address the relation between the sampling period and the deadline.
It has been shown that the hard deadline represents the maximum allowable control latency to guarantee stability and it is typically several times larger than the sampling period.
On the other hand, the shortest deadline, the better performance and robustness can be guaranteed.

Zain Hammadeh, Thank you for your answer. Unfortunately this is not the relation i was looking for. When i said dead-time, I meant the initial delay of the system.
So to rephrase my question,
"How do i derive a relationship between the sampling time of the real-time system and the initial delay of system?"
