Abstract
Current real-time embedded systems used in today’s industrial products have very limited capabilities for adaptation. The main reason is due to the fact that they are built on top of commercial components that do not offer the possibility of being reconfigured at runtime. For example, at the operating system level, most of the internal kernel mechanisms, such as scheduling, interrupt handling, synchronization, mutual exclusion, or communication, have a precise behaviour dictated by a specific policy that cannot be changed, nor adapted.
