Title
Configurable Event Communication in Cadena
Abstract
To satisfy the stringent QoS requirements of distributedreal-time embedded (DRE) systems, middleware servicescustomized to the specific needs of the application may beneeded. This problem is often attacked by re-implementingall or large portions of an existing middleware service,which can be a time-consuming and an error prone task.In this paper, we propose a model-driven approach formiddleware customization. To enable this approach, wepropose Event Communication Framework (ECF), a customizablemiddleware framework which provides a numberof different options for implementing various featuresof event communication. To determine when to exerciseeach option, we have performed experiments to identifythe application contexts in which each ECF mechanismperforms better than the others. Heuristics from these experimentshave been incorporated into algorithms whichanalyze high-level specifications of application scenariosto identify where ECF customizations can be applied. Weprovide configuration tools that generate customized pushpaths for event notifications using a combination of codesynthesis, weaving and transformation techniques. Wehave applied our approach to the application scenarios inthe Boeing BoldStroke system.
