Existing real-time ORB middleware standardssuch as RT-CORBA do not adequately address thechallenges of 1) providing robust performance guaranteesportably across different platforms, and 2) managingunpredictable workload. To overcome this limitation,we have developed software called FCS/nORBthat integrates a Feedback Control real-time Scheduling(FCS) service with the nORB small-footprint real-timeORB designed for networked embedded systems.FCS/nORB features feedback control loops that providereal-time performance guarantees by automaticallyadjusting the rate of remote method invocationstransparently to an application. FCS/nORB thus enablesreal-time applications to be truly portable interms of real-time performance as well as functionality,without the need for hand tuning. This paper presentsthe design, implementation, and evaluation ofFCS/nORB. Our extensive experiments on a Linux testbeddemonstrate that FCS can provide deadline missratio and utilization guarantees in face of changes inthe platform and task execution times, while introducinga small amount of overhead.
