Abstract

The design  and implementation of a distributed real-time kernel (DRTK) simulator to run on a UNIX operating system that can be used to test real-time system software design strategies is presented. The functions of DRTK throughout the book are extended. The kernel consists of a lower and a higher module. The lower module has the Scheduler at the bottom and time and interrupt handling, task state managing, and input/output management as higher layers. The higher module consists of task synchronization and communication, high memory management, and task management layers.
