Rome, Italy. December 2nd, 2014.As the AFDX networks have been increasingly employed for airborne networks, much research works have been conducted to support real-time service in a deterministic way. However, since they assumed the preconfigured networks where all involved parameters were already determined, the impact of configuration algorithm is not well explored. To solve this problem, in this paper, we focus on how to reduce the required bandwidth by configuring virtual link which logically consists of at least one or more application flows. To achieve this, new heuristic algorithms have been proposed by applying well-known greedy approach while taking essential constraints of AFDX networks into account. To evaulate the performance of proposed scheme, diverse case studies for airborne application flows are concerned and their number of virtual links as well as required bandwidth are compared.6application/pdfeng© Copyright by the AuthorsAtribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 EspañaSistemas en tiempo realSistemas distribuidoscloud computingdistributed systemsReal-time computingAFDXVirtual LinkConfigurationHeuristic Algorithm for Virtual Link Configuration in AFDX Networksconference proceedingsTelecomunicacionesopen access2833International Workshop on Real-Time and Distributed Computing in Emerging Applications (REACTION 2014)
