Abstract (EN): The theory of real-time task scheduling can be applied, in many situations, to realtime message scheduling. Particularly, it can be advantageously applied in real-time fieldbus networks such as the FIP fieldbus (Factory Instrumentation Protocol). In this paper the Rate-Monotonic Scheduling theory is used to derive a suficient schedulability condition for the FIP fieldbus with a modified scheduler. Such condition may enhance the usability of FIP-like fieldbuses in dynamic environments.
