Abstract

This paper investigates the concept of share-driven scheduling, using servers, of networks with real-time properties. Share-driven scheduling provides fairness and bandwidth isolation between predictable as well as unpredictable streams of messages on the network.The need for this kind of scheduled real-time communication network is high in applications that have requirements on flexibility, both during development for assigning communication bandwidth to different applications, and during run-time to facilitate dynamic addition and removal of system components.We illustrate the share-driven scheduling concept by applying it to the popular Controller Area Network (CAN). We propose a scheduling mechanism that we call Simple Server-Scheduled CAN (SSS-CAN), for which we also present an associated timing analysis. Additionally, we present a variant of SSS-CAN called Periodic Server-Scheduled CAN (PSS-CAN), which for some network configurations gives lower worst-case response-times than SSS-CAN. Also for this improvement, a timing analysis is presented. Moreover, we use simulation to evaluate the timing performance of both SSS-CAN and PSS-CAN, comparing them with other scheduling mechanisms.
