Towards a POSIX Standard for Software Administration
نویسنده
چکیده
The POSIX draft standard for Software Administration is about to go to ballot for acceptance as a formal POSIX standard. Since this standard is likely to form the basis of future Software Administration products it will have a profound effect on the facilities available to administrators and the way they manage software. This paper explains how the standard came about, gives a summary of the features and explains how systems administrations can, via the balloting process, have an influence on the final standard.

Real-time Posix: an Overview
The POSIX standard defines a portable interface for UNIXbased operating systems. The goal of this increasingly important standard is source-level portability of applications. In this paper we discuss the real-time extensions to POSIX and how these extensions address the needs of applications with real-time requirements.
متن کاملThe Use of POSIX in Real-time Systems, Assessing its Effectiveness and Performance
The POSIX standard promotes portability of applications across different operating system platforms. This is especially important for applications designed for longevity, where the hardware and software infrastructure may change during the application’s life cycle. However in real-time systems, where predictability and low overhead are important, portability is often sacrificed. In this paper w...
متن کاملA Library Implementation of POSIX Threads under UNIX
Recently, there has been an effort to specify an IEEE standard for portable operating systems for open systems, called POSIX. One part of it, the POSIX 1003.4a threads extension (Pthreads for short) [12], describes the interface for light-weight threads that rely on shared memory and have a smaller context frame than processes. This paper describes and evaluates the design and implementation of...
متن کاملPEACE Threads Interface On Microkernel
Recently, thread libraries have become powerful entities to support parallel programming on shared memory multiprocessors and multicomputers. However, the disparity between the primitives offered by the operating systems and thread’s interface creates a challenge for those who wish to create portable threads library. The implementation of PEACE (POSIX Extensions to an Advanced Computing Environ...
متن کاملAnalysis and implementation of the IEC 61131-3 software model under POSIX Real-Time operating systems
In this paper, we present a proposal to implement the IEC 61131-3 software model. This model establishes the high-level elements of the Programmable Logic Controllers. We discuss some of the points of the standard that should be clariWed before implementing it, such as concurrency, variable scope and cyclic operation. We show the implementation guidelines using POSIX compliant Real-Time Operati...
