TLDR
Experimental results obtained through this case study give evidence of the feasibility and efficacy of these steps towards the overall goal: to develop a Cyber-physical Instrument for Real-time hybrid Structural Testing (CIRST).Abstract:
Real-time hybrid testing of civil structures, in which computational models and physical components must be integrated with high fidelity at run-time, represents a grand challenge in the emerging area of cyber-physical systems. Actuator dynamics, complex interactions among computers and physical components, and computation and communication delays all must be managed carefully to achieve accurate tests.In this paper we present a case study of several fundamental interlocking challenges in developing and evaluating cyber-physical systems for real-time hybrid structural testing: (1) how physical and simulated components can be integrated flexibly and efficiently within a common reusable middleware architecture; (2) how predictable timing can be achieved atop commonly available hardware and software platforms; and (3) how physical vs. simulated versions of different components within a system can be interchanged with high fidelity between comparable configurations. Experimental results obtained through this case study give evidence of the feasibility and efficacy of these steps towards our overall goal: to develop a Cyber-physical Instrument for Real-time hybrid Structural Testing (CIRST).read more

Multi-core Real-Time Scheduling for Generalized Parallel Task Models
TL;DR: A new task decomposition method is proposed that decomposes each parallel task into a set of sequential tasks and achieves a resource augmentation bound of 2.62 when the decomposed tasks are scheduled using global EDF and partitioned deadline monotonic scheduling, respectively.

Analysis of Federated and Global Scheduling for Parallel Real-Time Tasks
TL;DR: The federated scheduling algorithm proposed in this paper is a generalization of partitioned scheduling to parallel tasks and shows that if on unit-speed cores, a task set has total utilization of at most m and the critical-path length of each task is smaller than its deadline, then Federated scheduling can schedule that task set.

Pseudodynamic Method for Seismic Testing
TL;DR: The pseudodynamic method as discussed by the authors is a relatively new experimental technique for evaluating the seismic performance of structural models in a laboratory by means of on-line computer controlled testing, during such a test, the displacement response of a structure to a specified dynamic excitation is numerically computed and quasi-statically imposed on the structure, based on analytically prescribed inertia and viscous damping characteristics for the structure and the experimentally measured structural restoring forces.
