Abstract

Version 1.1 of the Real-Time Specification for Java (RTSJ) has significantly enhanced its support for multiprocessor platforms. This chapter discusses the rationale for the approach adopted and presents details of the impact on the specification. In particular, it considers the new dispatching and processor affinity models, issues of cost enforcement and the affinity of external events.
