The DARPA Adaptive and Reflective Middleware Systems (ARMS) Program, Phase II: Pervasive Instrumentation and Adaptation for Distributed Real-Time Embedded Systems

Abstract

This is the final technical report on the Adaptive and Reflective Middleware Systems (ARMS) Phase II work by a team led by Telcordia. Our focus in the ARMS program is in the development of an adaptive and reflective network Quality of Service (QoS) infrastructure for the Total Ship Computing Environment (TSCE) of next generation surface ships. Our technology uses a Bandwidth Broker to provide admission control, and leverages Differentiated Services and Class of Service functionality of high-end routers and switches for enforcement. In the Phase II ARMS program, we built upon our Phase I network QoS technology to provide continued assurance of network QoS for mission-critical tasks in the presence of certain catastrophic faults such as losing an entire data center, and improve the timely adaptation to network performance with probes and instrumentation for delay.
