Florian Hofer, Martin A. Sehr, Antonio Iannopollo, Ines Ugalde, Alberto Sangiovanni-Vincentelli, Barbara Russo · 2019
We explore the challenges and opportunities of shifting industrial control software from dedicated hardware to bare-metal servers or cloud computing platforms using off the shelf technologies. In particular, we demonstrate that executing time-critical applications on cloud platforms is viable based on a series of dedicated latency tests targeting relevant real-time configurations.
