Automation systems must primarily be deterministic and reliable, especially in safety-critical environments. With recent trends such as mass customization or Industry 4.0, there is an increasing need for automation systems to be dynamic. Changing parts of the software of today's automation systems, however, typically requires rebooting the controller, which makes software updates a complex and costly...
Traditional distributed embedded systems are configured using static environment information and thus do not support dynamic behavior of the system. The necessary flexibility in the system may be provided by the Flexible Time-Triggered (FTT) communication paradigm. If, in addition, it is required that the system operates continuously, the suitable fault tolerance mechanisms that provide high reliability...
The complexity of modern industrial automation systems means that designing with change in mind is a necessity. Event-driven and time-driven programming paradigms each have their own benefits for the development of distributed systems control. However, flexibility and reconfiguration will always be required as new technologies are introduced and increased distribution results in greater chances for...
