Abstract
Although dynamic software updating has addressed various problems on software maintenance, there are no noticeable outcomes in applying it to real-time systems. In this paper, a novel EDF-based scheduling algorithm is presented to update real-time systems dynamically while preserving the schedulability of tasks and satisfying precedence constraints intrinsically imposed between the updated and updating tasks.
