چکیده

The Realize system simplifies the development of complex applications by separating the application programming from the management of resources for soft real-time CORBA applications, and from the replication of CORBA objects to provide high availability and fault tolerance. Realize uses totally ordered multicast messages to maintain consistency of the states of the object replicas, and adjusts the degree of replication dynamically as resource availability changes. By measuring the usage of the resources and by monitoring the behavior of application objects, Realize allocates objects to processors and migrates objects between processors to balance the load on the processors. Realize employs a least-laxity scheduling strategy that meets soft real-time deadlines for tasks operating across multiple processors. Thus, with Realize, the difficult issues of distribution, real-time scheduling, load balancing, replication, consistency, and fault detection and recovery are hidden from the application programmer.

Modular software architecture for flexible reservation mechanisms on heterogeneous resources

Management, allocation and scheduling of heterogeneous resources for complex distributed real-time applications is a challenging problem. Timing constraints of applications may be fulfilled by a proper use of real-time scheduling policies, admission control and enforcement of timing constraints. However, it is not easy to design basic infrastructure services that allow for an easy access to the...

Adaptive Resource Management in Asynchronous Real-Time Distributed Systems Using Feedback Control Functions

In this paper, we present feedback control techniques for performing adaptive resource management in asynchronous real-time distributed systems. Asynchronous real-time distributed systems are characterized by significant execution-time uncertainties in the application environment and system resource state. Thus, such systems require adaptive resource management that dynamically monitor the syst...

A Symmetric MAC Protocol for CSMA Busses in Dynamic Distributed Real-time Systems

By using a hybrid scheduling algorithm consisting of static offline scheduling and dynamic online scheduling, hard deadlines can be guaranteed, while achieving optimal resource utilization by soft real-time activities. This paper introduces a medium access control (MAC) protocol for a CSMA bus, which supports the hybrid scheduling of hard and soft real-time messages on the bus. The key issues c...

Issues in Managing Soft QoS Requirements in Distributed Systems Using a Policy-Based Framework

We address the problem of Quality of Service (QoS) requirements for multimedia applications (e.g., distance education, telemedicine, electronic commerce). These applications need to be able to co-exist with more traditional applications for transaction and data processing and have soft real-time requirements. Unlike most other work in QoS management, we provide a framework that does not require...
