Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2013138833A1] The invention relates to a method for limiting the effects of software errors in a distributed real-time system in which a plurality of distributed application systems are executed simultaneously, wherein each application system forms an encapsulated software fault containment unit (SWFCU), wherein an SWFCU comprises the software of a distributed application system, said software being executed on one or more virtual computer nodes and one or more dedicated computer nodes, and exchanging messages via one or more encapsulated virtual communication systems, wherein a communication system consists of communication controllers, switching units and physical connections, and wherein the direct effects of a software error of an SWFCU remain limited to the SWFCU.
