Object-Oriented Real-Time Systems Analysis and Design Issues Workshop Co-Chairs

The primary theme of this workshop was object-ori-ented real-time systems analysis and design issues. Our goal was to define a set of crucial issues related to object-oriented real-time systems and reach a consensus on how these issues can best be resolved. This workshop did not address implementation language issues. 2. Activities The agenda for this workshop was designed to divide the workshop participants into three groups for workshop activities. Each group met during the morning session to debate their issues and presented their findings in the af-ternoon session. Group 1: What selection criteria are important when se-lecting an object-oriented evelopment technique for real-time analysis and design? What problem domain situations can have a significant impact on the selection? Group 2: Some object-riented techniques, i.e, Booth, Jacobson, Rumbaugh, claim to support real-time pro-gramming. How well do they really support real-time analysis and design? What are they missing? Are the tools adequate? Group 3: What should we expect the impact to be on object-oriented real-time systems from patterns and other domain-level object templates? Generic applica-tions? User configurable object-oriented kernels
