“…Additionally, the use of ADTs in parallel and distributed hard real-time systems is being explored, with some results being reported in [24]. Results of the effort in schedulability analysis and scheduling are reported in [17,20,21]. The model presented in this paper is based 29 INCORPORATING TEMPORAL CONSIDERATIONS DURING ASSIGNMENT on the DEpendable Distributed Operating System (DEDOS) [7,8], which also supports the use of objects in distributed fault-tolerant, real-time systems [20,21].…”
