Abstract (EN):
In this paper we address the P-NET Medium Access Control (MAC) ability to schedule traffic according to its real-time requirements, in order to support real-time distributed applications. We provide a schedulability analysis based on the P-NET standard, and propose mechanisms to overcome priority inversion problems resulting from the use of FIFO outgoing buffers.
