Evaluating P-NET Message's Response Time with Fixed Priority Queuing at Application Process Level
نویسندگان
چکیده
P-NET is a multi-master fieldbus standard based on a virtual token passing scheme. In P-NET each master is allowed to transmit only one message per token visit. In the worst-case, the communication response time can be derived considering that, in each token cycle, all stations use the token to transmit a message. In this paper, we define a more sophisticated P-NET model, which considers the actual token utilisation. We then analyse the possibility of implementing a local priority-based scheduling policy to improve the real-time behaviour of P-NET.

Scheduling and Stochastic Capacity Estimation of an EV Charging Station with PV Rooftop Using Queuing Theory and Random Forest
Power capacity of EV charging stations could be increased by installing PV arrays on their rooftops. In these charging stations, power transmission can be two-sided when needed. In this paper a new method based on queuing theory and random forest algorithm proposed to calculate net power of charging station considering random SOC of EV’s. Due to estimation time constraints, a queuing model with...
متن کاملAdding local priority-based dispatching mechanisms to P-NET networks: a fixed priority approach
In this paper we address the real-time capabilities of P-NET, which is a multi-master fieldbus standard based on a virtual token passing scheme. We show how P-NET’s medium access control (MAC) protocol is able to guarantee a bounded access time to message requests. We then propose a model for implementing fixed prioritybased dispatching mechanisms at each master’s application level. In this way...
متن کاملMODELLING AND ANALYSIS OF A DISCRETE-TIME PRIORITY QUEUING COMPUTER NETWORK WITH PRIORITY JUMPS USING PROBABILITY GENERATING FUNCTIONS
Priority queues have a great importance in the study of computer communication networks in which different types of traffic require different quality of service standards. The discrete-time non-preemptive priority queuing model with priority jumps is proposed in this paper. On the basis of probability generating functions mean system contents and mean queuing delay characteristics are obtained....
متن کاملApplication of Response Surface Methodology and Artificial Neural Network for Analysis of p-chlorophenol Biosorption by Dried Activated Sludge
Phenolic compounds are considered as priority pollutants because of their high toxicity at low concentration. In the present study, the sorption of p-chlorophenol (p-CP) by dried activated sludge was investigated. Activated sludge was collected as slurry from the sludge return line of a municipal wastewater treatment plant. Sorption experiments were carried out in batch mode. In order to invest...
