A lot of studies to measure and analyze the system performance have been done in areas such as system modeling, performance measurement, monitoring, and performance prediction since the advent of a computer system. Studies on a framework to unify the performance related areas have rarely been performed although many studies in the various areas have been done, however. In the case of TMO(Time-Triggered Message-Triggered Object), a real-time programming model, it hardly provides tools and frameworks on the performance except a simple run-time monitor. So it is difficult to analyze the performance of the real-time system and the process based on TMO. Thus, in this paper, we propose a framework for the dynamic analysis of the real-time system based on TMO, TDAF(TMO based Dynamic Analysis Framework). TDAF treats all the processes for the performance measurement and analysis, and Provides developers with more reliable information systematically combining a load model, a performance model, and a reporting model. To support this framework, we propose a load model which is extended by applying TMO model to the conventional one, and we provide the load calculation algorithm to compute the load of TMO objects. Additionally, based on TMO model, we propose performance algorithms which implement the conceptual performance metrics, and we present the reporting model and algorithms which can derive the period and deadline for the real-time processes based on the load and performance value. In last, we perform some experiments to validate the reliability of the load calculation algorithm, and provide the experimental result.

In this paper, we design and construct a TMO object group that provides the guaranteed real-time services in the distributed object computing environments, and verify execution power of its model for the correct distributed real-time services. The TMO object group we suggested is based on TINA's object group concept. This model consists of TMO objects having real-time properties and some components that support the object management service and the real-time scheduling service in the TMO object group. Also TMO objects can be duplicated or non-duplicated on distributed systems. Our model can execute the guaranteed distributed real-time service on COTS middlewares without restricting the specially ORB or the of operating system. For achieving goals of our model. we defined the concepts of the TMO object and the structure of the TMO object group. Also we designed and implemented the functions and interactions of components in the object group. The TMO object group includes the Dynamic Binder object and the Scheduler object for supporting the object management service and the real-time scheduling service, respectively The Dynamic Binder object supports the dynamic binding service that selects the appropriate one out of the duplicated TMO objects for the clients'request. And the Scheduler object supports the real-time scheduling service that determines the priority of tasks executed by an arbitrary TMO object for the clients'service requests. And then, in order to verify the executions of our model, we implemented the Dynamic Binder object and the Scheduler object adopting the binding priority algorithm for the dynamic binding service and the EDF algorithm for the real-time scheduling service from extending the existing known algorithms. Finally, from the numerical analyzed results we are shown, we verified whether our TMO object group model could support dynamic binding service for duplicated or non-duplicated TMO objects, also real-time scheduling service for an arbitrary TMO object requested from clients.

In this paper, we construct the TMO-based object group model on distributed environment, and analyze and evaluate the executability for distributed real-time service of our object group model by developing the distributed real-time application simulator applying the model. The Time-triggered Message-triggered Object(TMO) is a real-time server object having real-time property itself. The TMO-based object group is defined as a set of objects which logically reconfigured the physically distributed one or more TMOs on network by a given distributed application. For supporting group management of the server objects, the TMO-based object group we suggested provides the functions which register and withdraw the solver objects as a group member to an arbitrary object group, and also provides the functions which insert and delete the access rights of server objects from clients. Also, our model was designed and implemented to support the appropriate object selection and dynamic binding service for a single TMO as well as the duplicated TMOs, and to support the real-time scheduling service for the clients which are requesting the service. Finally, we developed the Defence System against Invading Enemy Planes(DSIEP) simulator as a practical example of distributed real-time application by applying our model, and evaluated the adaptability of distributed service strategies for the group components and the executability of real-time services that the TMO-based object group model provides.

A stores management software which is embedded in the stores management system requires high-level reliability and real-time processing. It also required to implement and verify protocols which requires timing constraints to control various weapons. In this paper, we propose design methodology to design a stores management software and its support middleware based on the TMO (Time-triggered Message-triggered Object) model.

In recently years, distributed real-time software has performed important roles in various areas. Real-time applications should be performed with satisfying strict constraints on response time. Usually real-time applications are developed on the real-time supporting middleware such as TMO(Time-triggered, Message-triggered Object), CORBA/RT, and RTAI. However, it is not easy to develop applications using them since these real-time middleware are unfamiliar to programmers. In this paper, we propose an automatic code generator for real-time application based on TMO in order to reduce development costs. For increasing or reflecting the characteristics of TMO into the design model, SpM and SvM methods are added into the class diagram, which have time constraints as their properties. And behaviors of them are represented as separated regions on state machine diagram in different abstract level. These diagrams are inputted into TMO-based code automatic generator, which generates details of the TMO class. Our approach has advantages for decreasing effort and time for making real time software by automatically generating TMO codes without detailed knowledge of TMO.

As the range of sensor network's applicability is getting wider, it creates new application areas which is required real-time operation, such as military and detection of radioactivity. However, existing researches are focused on effective management for resources, existing sensor network operating system cannot support to real-time areas. In this paper, we propose the ${\mu}TMO$ model which is lightweight real-time distributed object model TMO. We design the real-time sensor network operation system ${\mu}TMO-NanoQ+$ which is based on ETRI's sensor network operation system Nano-Q+. We modify the Nano-Q+'s timer module to support high resolution and apply Context Switch Threshold, Power Aware scheduling techniques to realize lightweight scheduler which is based on EDF. We also implement channel based communication way ITC-Channel and periodic thread management module WTMT.

It is the most important object of real-time computing to make real-time tasks keep their given time conditions. In this paper, we implemented BCC(Basic Concurrency Constraint) scheduler which is provided as an essential element of TMO(Time-triggered Message-triggered Object) model, and TMO Supporting Library that supports object-oriented design for TMO. BCC scheduler is a means to design timeliness-guaranteed computing, and it predicts the start of SpMs first, and then it makes the execution of SvMs deferred when it is predicted that any SpM begins to run currently. In this way, BCC is able to prevent collisions between SpM and SvM, and it gives higher priority to SpMs than SvMs.

Recently, the importance of velocity, one of the characteristics of big data (5V: Volume, Variety, Velocity, Veracity, and Value), has been emphasized in the data processing, which has led to several studies on the real-time stream processing, a technology for quick and accurate processing and analyses of big data. In this paper, we propose a Squall framework using Time-triggered Message-triggered Object (TMO) technology, a model that is widely used for processing real-time big data. Moreover, we provide a description of Squall framework and its operations under a single node. TMO is an object model that supports the non-regular real-time processing method for certain conditions as well as regular periodic processing for certain amount of time. A Squall framework can support the real-time event stream of big data and micro-batch processing with outstanding performances, as compared to Apache storm and Spark Streaming. However, additional development for processing real-time stream under multiple nodes that is common under most frameworks is needed. In conclusion, the advantages of a TMO model can overcome the drawbacks of Apache storm or Spark Streaming in the processing of real-time big data. The TMO model has potential as a useful model in real-time big data processing.
