Abstract

In a component-based distributed real-time system we distinguish two levels of system administration, the coordination of the message-based communication and resource allocation among the components and the establishment, coordination, and control of the concurrent tasks within each one of the components. The focus of this chapter is on the operating system and middleware functions within a component.
