Distributed real-time operating system providing dynamic guaranteed mixed priority scheduling for communications and processing

摘要

A communication function for connecting, via a network, distributed hardware in a distributed control system, prioritizes the queuing of messages on the network according both to a message priority established by the user and the context of the task and according to a deadline period by which the task must be executed. In this way, the normal queuing of messages for a communication network does not defeat the guarantee of the completion time of the execution of tasks. The same scheduling method may be used for the tasks themselves.
