A Scheduling Strategy for a Real-Time Dependable Organic Middleware

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 4017))

Abstract

This paper presents the architecture and conception of a dependable organic middleware based on the yet existing, not organic middleware OSA+. We show a scheduling strategy which assigns missions in real-time to a distributed set of platforms in the scope of a fabric automation scenario. The missions are distributed to different robots by the organic middleware whose scheduling includes organic aspects like self-organization, self-optimization and self-healing.
