  1. OSMOSE Thales Communications SC2 - Software Core for Computer-based systems

  2. Thales Objectives • Addressing RTE middleware • Build an adapted solution for the industry • Continue works on Lightweight CCM • Package SC2 current solution • Pursue Network Centric studies specifically on WP2 • Integrate WP2 works into our CCM implementation SC2 - Software Core for Computer-based systems

  3. Thales OSMOSE Contribution • WP1 : Middleware requirements for some Thales systems • WP2 : • On the container architecture: • Merge and enhance concepts from the COACH container with ideas developed in parallel for RT-Containers at SC2. • Connection : middleware service for data exchange on a requested QoS • Mobility : Express concerns of Connection framework on mobility works • System Management : Express concerns on resources monitoring (platforms, networks, …) SC2 - Software Core for Computer-based systems

  4. Requirements • Radio systems • Security equipments • IP Networks • Radars, Sonars • ATM • IT&S SC2 - Software Core for Computer-based systems

  5. Platforms WP3 • Thales/SC2 to participate on Objectweb OpenCCM Platform development • For the purpose of DRE systems SC2 - Software Core for Computer-based systems

  6. Interesting systems Thales internal interest : spawns multiple segment, including : • RTE • Radio system • Security equipments • IP Networks • Miscellaneous embedded systems • … • Near RT • ATM Systems (Command & Control Systems) • Network Centric • Supervisory system (electric dispatch, transportation supervision,…) • … SC2 - Software Core for Computer-based systems

  7. LightWeight CCM • Why a LightWeight CCM • Interest in building systems based on components for embedded systems. • Increases reusability of building blocks • They present in general a large complexity. • Natural modularity of applications • Components can be selected or not, etc … • Long term : better use of COTS in systems. • Extracts the fundamental features of CCM • Provides bases which can be built on for extensions (RT-CCM, nRT-CCM, …) • Lightweight CCM is a standard specification • Is to plain CCM what minimum CORBA is to plain CORBA • Hence allows implementations to have a footprint suitable for embedded devices • Typical platform settings for embedded systems we speak about: 4 MB flash, 8 MB Ram (OS, and applications included), Processor : PPC at 200 Mhz. • Simplifies the full CCM specification • Only the basic features needed for embedded systems are kept. SC2 - Software Core for Computer-based systems

  8. Status of Thales SC2 ongoing works 1/ • SC2 has started a mockup of Lw-CCM for internal studies (µCCM) • Serving as platform for feasibility investigations for RT/E-containers • Allowing to demonstrate component software development. • Aims at targeting: • Real-time operating systems • like C5 / VxWorks / Lynx-OS / Linux derivations for RT (RTAI, RTLinux, …) • Minimum-CORBA / RT-CORBA 1 & 2 middlewares • ORBs with low footprint ( e.g 300Kb library) : ORB-Express / e*ORB / Visibroker RT / … • Real-time ORBs (like the RT-versions of the previous ORBs, or TAO). • The C++ Language / the C Language / Java / Ada (?) • Low footprint / High-performance / predictability, … SC2 - Software Core for Computer-based systems

  9. Status of Thales SC2 ongoing works 2/ • What the mockup currently presents: • Support for Facet / Receptacles & Event sources / sinks. • An IDL3 to IDL2 compiler based on a small subset of IDL • based on the “Spirit” C++ parsing framework • An IDL3 to C++ backend for generation of containers • Statically code-generated containers • Allows to embed only what needed / low run-time overhead since features “inlined” • Configuration of features supported in containers done at IDL3 compilation time. • C++ backend supports introduction of plug-ins for particular features. • Plug-ins available / under development : • Selection of network protocols for connections between components • Small real-time schedulers framework & EDF real-time scheduler as example. • Periodic timers ( combined with EDF scheduler to do periodic scheduling) • Tracing • Simplified deployment toolchain SC2 - Software Core for Computer-based systems

  10. Status of Thales SC2 ongoing works 3/ • Current limitations : • Has not an industrial quality • was devised primarily to do demos. • Some features / tools are missing • Home Executors, multiple receptacles, … • Assembly tool, … • Our goals in the scope of our contribution in OpenCCM for WP3 : • provide and assess the C++ runtime we are currently building • Clean up and enhance the quality of the code (in particular control the footprint) • Integrate conveniently in the build of OpenCCM • Provide automated unit tests / functional tests • Provide an implementation of the container specified in WP2 • Provide simple examples illustrating: • Basic real-time features, • … SC2 - Software Core for Computer-based systems
