Designing Hard Real-Time Systems

چکیده
This paper presents a systems life cycle and a structured design method which are tailored towards the construction of real-time systems in general, and hard real-time systems in particular. The standard systems life cycle is modified to take into account the expression and satisfaction of non-functional requirements. The HOOD design method is extended to support abstractions which explicitly cater for the characteristics and properties of hard real-time systems. The new method is called HRT-HOOD (Hard Realtime HOOD).

Designing a Fuzzy Scheduler for Hard Real-Time Systems
In hard real-time systems, tasks have to be performed not only correctly, but also in a timely fashion. If timing constraints are not met, there might be severe consequences. Task scheduling is the most important problem in designing a hard real-time system, because the scheduling algorithm ensures that tasks meet their deadlines. However, the inherit nature of uncertainty in dynamic hard real-...
متن کاملAdaptable Scheduler Using Milestones For Hard Real-Time Systems
Issues for designing adaptable hard real-time scheduler are discussed. A general approach that utilises milestones is given and illustrated using the Least Laxity Algorithm. The hard real-time tasks are guaranteed by means of an "alert" that is generated using the information provided by the milestones. Some performance results are also given (in the form of upper bound of the overhead). hhhhhh...
متن کاملReal-Time Communication in Autonomous Robot Systems
Designing control and robotic systems as autonomous decentralized systems introduces a new degree of flexibility in the manufacturing and in the application of such systems. This flexibility is required for the systems to work in environments that are not totally predictable and that can change dynamically. In this paper, we present a new concept for real-time communication that supports this f...
متن کاملAdding Time-offsets to Schedulability Analysis
This paper discusses the addition of so-called time offsets to task sets dispatched according to fixed priorities. The motivation for this work is two-fold: firstly, direct expression of time offsets is a useful structuring approach for designing complex hard real-time systems. Secondly, analysis directly addressing time offsets can be very much less pessimistic than extant analysis. In this re...
متن کاملTowards an HLA Run-time Infrastructure with Hard Real-time Capabilities
Our work takes place in the context of the HLA standard and its application in real-time systems context. The HLA standard is inadequate for taking into consideration the different constraints involved in real-time computer systems. Many works have been invested in order to providing real-time capabilities to Run Time Infrastructures (RTI) to run real time simulation. Most of these initiatives ...
