A component and aspect-based platform for simulating Real-Time Databases

摘要

Applications like stock markets, embedded systems and telecommunications are becoming more demanding real-time database management systems. Research in the area of real-time databases leads to the development of sophisticated control algorithms and for testing these in different configurations we need a simulator framework that allows us to see how they behave for different transaction workloads. As a means for evaluating real-time database algorithms, we have developed RTDS, Real-Time Database Simulator, a Java simulator which is based on components and aspects. RTDS is fully configurable and has the ability of simulating a real-time database with differentiated services and distinct configurations.
