Abstract	The paper presents an architectural framework and algorithms for engineering dynamic real-time distributed systems using commercial off-the-shelf technologies. In the proposed architecture, a real-time system application is developed in a general-purpose programming language. Further, the architectural-level description of the system such as composition and interconnections of application software and hardware, and the operational requirements of the system such as timeliness and survivability are specified in a system description language. The specification of the system is automatically translated into an intermediate representation (IR) that models the system in a platform-independent manner. The IR is augmented with dynamic measurements of the system by a language runtime system to produce a dynamic system model. The dynamic model is used by resource management middleware strategies to perform resource management that achieves timeliness and survivability requirements. We present two classes of algorithms: predictive and availability-based, for performing resource allocation. To validate the viability of the approach, we use a real-time benchmark application that functionally approximates dynamic real-time command and control systems. The benchmark results illustrate that the middleware is able to achieve the desired timeliness requirements during a number of load situations. Furthermore, availability-based allocation algorithms perform resource allocation less frequently, whereas predictive algorithms give a better steady state performance for the application.
