Abstract
A computing system and a method are specified. The computing system has a plurality of components which are configured to use a resource exclusively jointly, an activity monitoring unit which records a number of activities of a component on the resource and an interrupting unit which is configured to interrupt access of the components for use of the resource when the number of activities of the component reaches an activity threshold, so that an assignment strategy can assign the exclusively jointly used resource to another component.
Claims13
A computing system having a plurality of components which use a resource exclusively jointly, comprising:
- an activity monitoring unit configured to record a number of activities of a component on the resource;
- an interrupting unit configured to interrupt access of the component for use of the resource when the number of activities of the component reaches an activity threshold, so that an assignment strategy can assign the exclusively jointly used resource to another component.
An aircraft with a computing system , the computing system having a plurality of components which use a resource exclusively jointly and comprising:
- an activity monitoring unit configured to record a number of activities of a component on the resource;
- an interrupting unit configured to interrupt access of the component for use of the resource when the number of activities of the component reaches an activity threshold, so that an assignment strategy can assign the exclusively jointly used resource to another component,
- wherein the computing system is configured to perform deterministically executable functions.
A method of influencing the exclusive assignment of a jointly used resource in a computing system to a component of a plurality of components or to a computing operation which is configured to use the resource, wherein the assignment of the resource to the component takes place according to any determined assignment strategy;
- the method comprising:
- determining an activity threshold which indicates the maximum number of activities of the component or the computing operation on the jointly used resource;
- monitoring a number of activities of the component or the computing operation on the jointly used resource;
- and
- blocking access of the component or computing operation to the jointly used resource, if the number of activities has reached the determined activity threshold, so that the assignment strategy can assign the jointly used resource to another component or another computing operation.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium on which a computer program element for controlling a computing system having a plurality of components which use a resource exclusively jointly is stored, the computer program element configured to implement a method when executed on a processor of a computer unit, the method comprising:
- determining an activity threshold which indicates the maximum number of activities of the component or the computing operation on the jointly used resource;
- monitoring a number of activities of the component or the computing operation on the jointly used resource;
- and
- blocking access of the component or computing operation to the jointly used resource, if the number of activities has reached the determined activity threshold, so that the assignment strategy can assign the jointly used resource to another component or another computing operation.
