碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 電機工程學研究所 === 87 === As a distributed object system, the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) provides a framework to facilitate the development and integration of applications across heterogeneous platforms. However, with the emerging requirements for real-time and fault-tolerant support in distributed computing system, CORBA doesn''t address a suitable mechanism to meet these requirements. Therefore, additional services or extensions should be added to CORBA. In this thesis, an approach extending CORBA to support real-time and fault-tolerant requirements is proposed. First, we will embed real-time scheduling mechanism in CORBA to meet temporal constraints. Then, a build-in fault-tolerant service is provided on CORBA. Last, with experimental implementation of the approach mentioned above, we successfully enhanced CORBA with real-time and fault-tolerant features.
