Case study: A Real-Time Framework optimized for process control in a family of industrial equipments

Giuliano Colla, Copeca srl.

The specific real-time requirements for industrial process control are illustrated, which differ from other real-time application fields, such as measurement and data collection and multimedia.

Relevant factors are analyzed. Namely: intrinsic performance, required human interaction, robustness and reliability, together with economic factors, such as development costs, maintenance costs and code re-usability.

The YRmx open source framework is described, which is optimized with respect to the above factors, together with its usage in current Real-time Linux.

A set of applications based on the same framework is described, used in a family of industrial equipments for the fabrication of booklets with critical high security and high productivity requirements, such as cheque books, voucher booklets, payment booklets etc. Those equipments are currently in use by security printers all over the world.
