Abstract

Developing distributed real-time and embedded (DRE) systems in which multiple quality-of-service (QoS) dimensions must be managed is an important and challenging problem. This paper makes three contributions to research on multi-dimensional QoS for DRE systems. First, it describes the design and implementation of a fault-tolerant real-time CORBA event service for the ACE ORB (TAO). Second, it describes our enhancements and extensions to features in TAO, to integrate real-time and fault tolerance properties. Third, it presents an empirical evaluation of our approach. Our results show that with some refinements, real-time and fault-tolerance features can be integrated effectively and efficiently in a CORBA event service
