A Self-Configuring Distributed Kernel for Satellite Networks

Authors: Cannon, Scott, Denys, Larry

Abstract:

The Space Software Laboratory is developing a self-configuring distributed kernel to be used on future satellite missions. The completion of this system will allow a network of heterogeneous processor nodes to communicate and broadcast in a scalable, self-configuring manner. Node applications software will be transparent to the underlying network architecture, message routing, and number of network nodes. Nodes may halt or be reset and later rejoin the network. The kernel will support in-flight programming of individual nodes.
