Abstract

This paper presents the Real Time Adaptive Resource Management system (RTARM 1), developed at the Honeywell Technology Center. RTARM supports provision of integrated services for real-time distributed applications and offers management services for end-to-end QoS negotiation, QoS adaptation, real-time monitoring and hierarchical QoS feedback adaptation. In this paper, we focus on the hierarchical architecture of RTARM, its flexibility, internal mechanisms and protocols that enable management of resources for integrated services. The architecture extensibility is emphasized with the description of several service managers, including an object wrapper build around the NetEx real-time network resource management. We use practical experiments with a distributed Automatic Target Recognition application and a synthetic pipeline application to illustrate the impact of RTARM on the application behavior and to evaluate the system performance.
