A Fast Real-Time Scheduling Algorithm for WIA-PA

Article Preview

Abstract:

WIA-PA networks have been widely used in industrial monitoring systems, but its real-time performance limits its usage in industrial control systems. And no existing works on real-time scheduling have taken into account all features of WIA-PA. So, in this paper, we propose an algorithm to schedule transmissions under real-time constraints for WIA-PA star-mesh networks. The algorithm is based on hybrid centralized and distributed network management, so it can quickly determine how to schedule transmissions. Experimental results show that our algorithm is fast and efficient.
