Rate-monotonic analysis of an advanced field artillery data system

The Advanced Field Artillery Tactical Data System (AFATDS) is a multiserver automated command and control system for fire support operations. The authors applied rate-monotonic analysis to Version 1 of the software. They developed two models. The first model focuses exclusively on application-level tasks; the second model considers effects of the UNIX run-time system. Analysis of these models gives an early indication that the software will satisfy its timing requirements.<
