Abstract (EN):
Although distributed real-time (RT) systems are intrinsically complex to develop and maintain, the use of certain object-oriented (OO) technologies such as CORBA and CORBA-RT facilitates those tasks. This is the main reason why these technologies are becoming increasingly popular. Moreover, CORBA is complemented with additional services that solve specific requirements for some applications, so developers may concentrate on the application functionality. Following this approach, this paper presents a new service that allows the synchronous scheduling of different activities in a distributed RT system in a simple and flexible way. This paper also explains how this service can be used for optimizing that access to shared resources in a distributed system and presents several experimental data that show the service performance.
