Total Ship Computing Environment Infrastructure (TSCE-I) Hardware and Software Technology

We shall design and prototype open interfaces for measuring the performance and satisfaction of applications in distributed real-time systems. The interfaces will constitute a framework that enables multiple dimensions of application performance and satisfaction to be measured, logged, visualized and interchanged. These measurements can also be fed to resource managers to dynamically adapt application behaviors to maximize overall system satisfaction. Dynamic (or offline) resource managers can also use these measurements in order to analytically and recursively deploy applications on available resources. Performance hooks can also be inserted into (or deleted from) the code automatically. Core capabilities and a visualization front-end will also be prototyped in open real-time environments. Measurements can be enabled or disabled selectively or when pre-specified alert conditions are satisfied.
