Abstract
The development and maintenance of high-integrity software is very expensive, and a specialized development process is required due to its distinctive characteristics. Namely, safety-critical systems usually execute over a distributed embedded platform with few hardware resources which must provide real-time communication and fault-tolerance. This work discusses the adequate communication paradigms for high-integrity distributed applications with hard real-time requirements, and proposes a restricted middleware based on the current schedulability theory which can be certified and capable to obtain the required predictability and timeliness of this kind of systems.
