Abstract: Two current trends in the real-time and embedded systems are the multiprocessor architectures and the partitioning technology that enables several isolated applications with different criticality levels to share the same computer. This paper presents a real-time platform for multiprocessor and partitioned systems, in which communication requirements are also considered. The paper describes the adaptation of MaRTE OS (a monoprocessor real-time operating system) to the XtratuM hypervisor for the multiprocessor Intel x86 architecture. This adaptation makes two contributions to ease the development process of future mixed-criticality applications: firstly, it integrates the hypervisor technology and the fully partitioned scheduling in a multiprocessor environment, and secondly, it provides the basis to interconnect partitioned and non-partitioned applications via a homogeneous communication subsystem.
