Fault-tolerance becomes an important key to establish dependability in Real Time Distributed Systems (RTDS). In fault-tolerant Real Time Distributed systems, detection of fault and its recovery should be executed in timely manner so that in spite of fault occurrences the intended output of real-time computations always take place on time. Hardware and software redundancy are well-known effective methods for fault tolerance, where extra hard ware (e.g., processors, communication links) and software (e.g., tasks, messages) are added into the system to deal with faults. Performances of RTDS are mostly guided by efficiency of scheduling algorithm and schedulability analyses are performed on the system to ensure the timing constrains. Fault tolerance can be achieved by scheduling additional ghost copies in addition to the primary copy of the task. The method proposed here extends the traditional distributed recovery block (DRB) based fault tolerant scheduling approach for real time tasks. Our algorithms are mostly based on software redundancy, and ensures that the parallel updating of backup task works better in case of transient overload and handles permanent, transient and timing fau

Control-Based Operating System Design describes the application of system- and control-theoretical methods to the design of computer operating system components. It argues that computer operating system components should not be first 'designed' and then 'endowed with control', but rather when possible conceived from the outset as controllers, synthesised and assessed in the system-theoretical world of dynamic models, and then realised as control algorithms. Doing so is certainly a significant perspective shift with respect to current practices in operating system design, but the payoff is significant too. In some sense, adopting the suggested attitude means viewing computing systems as cyber-physical ones, where the operating system plays the computational role, the physical elements are the managed resources, and the various (control) functionalities to be realised, interact and co-operate as a network. The book includes both a theoretical treatment of the usefulness of the approach, and the description of a complete implementation in the form of Miosix, a microcontroller kernel made available as free software.

USB is likely the most successful communication interface in the history of computer systems, and is the de-facto standard for connecting computer peripherals. Micri m's C/USB-Device is a USB device stack designed specifically for embedded systems. Built from the ground up with Micri m's quality, scalability and reliability, it has gone through a rigorous validation process to comply with the USB 2.0 specification. The first part of this book describes the inner-workings of USB using Micri m's C/USB-Device stack as a reference. The second part demonstrates how the Renesas YRDKRX63N Demonstration Kit (sold separately) and Micri m's C/USB-Device stack can be used as the foundation to build a USB device that relies on a combination of proven hardware and software platforms. Renesas' ultra-low-power RX63N MCU is at the core of the YRDKRX63N board, which incorporates communication functions such as USB 2.0 full-speed (host or device) among others. The examples featured in this book include USB devices with the most basic functionality that will allow you to understand the USB concepts covered in the first part of the book and at the same time, they provide a framework to quickly build devices such as: - USB-to-serial adapter (Communications Device Class) - Mouse or keyboard (Human Interface Device Class) - Removable storage device (Mass Storage Class) - USB medical device (Personal Healthcare Device Class) - Custom device (Vendor Class)

Relational databases place heavy demands on their underlying hardware and many of these databases are mission-critical resources for multiple applications, where performance bottlenecks are immediately noticeable and often very costly to the business. Despite this, many database administrators are not very knowledgeable about server hardware. Many medium-to-large companies have completely separate departments that are responsible for hardware selection, configuration, and maintenance, and the DBA with no knowledge of hardware is often completely at their mercy. Likewise, many DBAs are also unaware of the performance implications of the various options and configurations for SQL Server, and the Operating System on which it is installed. Glenn Berry is a highly experienced Database Architect, teacher and SQL Server MVP, and his book is designed to provide the fundamental knowledge and resources you need to make intelligent choices about optimal installation and configuration of SQL Server hardware, operating system and the SQL Server RDBMS. With what you learn in this book, you'll be able to ensure that your SQL Server instances can handle gracefully the CPU, memory and IO workload generated by your applications, and that the operating system and SQL Server itself are installed, patched, and configured for maximum performance and reliability.
