2
Cadena/CIAO Integration (PI Meeting)
Cadena
CIAO
BasicSP
IDL3
CIDL
deployment and configuration
Interaction Points
3
Step I

• BasicSP
• IDL3
• Cadena spits it out
• Run through CIAO IDL3 compiler
• CIDL
• currently not emitted by Cadena, but can be
  accomplished by traditional editing facilities
• Packaging Deployment
• Cadena spits out CCM .cad (May 20)
• Purpose
• demonstrate collaboration for PI meeting

4
Step II
Context/ Container
XML info about communication paths, e.g.,
event-channel, data service

• Configurable containers for incorporating
  middleware communication layers
• initial draft by Gurdip et. al. (May 30)
• feedback and iteration (June, July)
• stable proposal (end of July)
• Purpose
• needed to incorporate RT event-channel in a
  robust way

5
Step III

• CCM .cad initial RT/QoS properties
• start with proposal by Venkatesh
• incorporate feedback from Boeing/CIAO
• draft with incorporating feedback from Boeing by
  PI meeting (June 4)
• continue with entire deployment framework
  through summer
• Purpose
• force us to
• agree on how to configure RT aspects of event
  channel required from OEP
• allow us to scale to process rest of Boeing
  scenarios (for next PI meeting!)

6
Later Steps

• Programmatic interfaces for Cadena so that CIAO
  could be fully integrated
• Provide Bogor models and evidence of their
  effectiveness on Boeing scenarios for people to
  evaluate
• Identify specialized uses of event-channel for
  particular use-cases
• Full specification of priority-correlation in the
  context of the Boeing scenarios
• Cadena property file and analysis tools
  (dependency and model-checking) integrated in GME
• Collection of property specifications to show to
  Boeing along with further probing for more
  complex/useful properties
• Beginning to prepare for PCES II OEP
• at some point, need to move beyond current Boeing
  scenarios
• Refactoring scheduling and other services to
  expose policies and mechanisms that can be
  specified/captured in modeling tools

7
PI meeting presentation

• KSU ends with integration slide, which is then
  talked to by Vanderbilt and Wash U

8
Working Groups

• Container configuration
• .cad XML extensions
• Model-checking (Bogor, GME)
