摘要
Distributed real-time systems of the future will require specialized network architectures that incorporate new classes of services and protocols in order to support time-constrained communication. In this paper, we propose a new local area network architecture for such systems. This four-layered architecture is characterized by new classes of connection-oriented and connectionless services that take into account the timing constraints of messages. We describe various aspects of the logical link control layer of the architecture and various real-time protocols that may be employed at the medium access control layer in order to support the new classes of services. We also describe a homogeneous approach to the implementation of medium access control protocols to support both connection-oriented and connectionless services, based on a uniform window splitting paradigm.
