Provisioning QoS in Real-Time Distributed Object Architectures for Power Plant Control Applications
Résumé
The work in this paper is a case study. This paper
describes how we are provisioning QoS in a real-time
distributed object platform able to support power
plant control applications. A previous experiment
with a modified Java-ChorusOS-ATM platform based on
RM-ODP/ReTINA binding objects enhanced our knowledge
on QoS based distributed object systems. RM-ODP/ReTINA
brings a distributed object computing model where,
time requirements can be specified in terms of QoS
parameters. Our goal is to achieve QoS provisioning
with off-the-shelf CoS based products in the Real-Time
Distributed Object Architectures to be built. Low
level building blocks of the architecture as communication
networks and operating systems exist as CoS components.
The current step of the project deals with distributed
object platform selection. But it is not so easy to choose
a QoS-enabled middleware.
