A Real-Time Distributed Scheduling Service For Middleware Systems

The latest version of Real-Time CORBA defines a Distributable Thread primitive to support real-time computing in a dynamic distributed environment. However, this standard does not provide support for making and enforcing global decisions. This paper describes the framework for a Distributed Scheduling Service (DSS) that provides globally sound decisionmaking and scheduling enforcement to real-time distributed systems. The paper describes the design and implementation of the framework, as well as preliminary performance results.
