Design and implementation of a SCI-based real-time CORBA
Stefan Lankes, M. Pfeiffer, Thomas Bemmerl · 2002
The Real-Time CORBA and minimumCORBA specifications in the forthcoming CORBA 3.0 standard are important steps towards defining standard-based middleware which can satisfy real time requirements in an embedded system. The article describes these new specifications and an implementation called ROFES. ROFES supports different network architectures, for example the Scalable Coherent Interface (SCI). Furthermore, the article examines the SCI-network and whether it possesses real time characteristics.
