Abstract
The invention relates to a method for the periodic transport of real-time data in a distributed computer system, which computer system comprises node machines (100, 101, 102, 103), in particular a plurality of node machines (100, 101, 102, 103), and distributor units (121, 122), in particular a plurality of distributor units (121, 122), wherein the node machines (100, 101, 102, 103) and the distributor units (121, 122) have access to a global time, and wherein real-time data is transported by means of time-triggered real-time messages. It is provided that for at least one distributor unit (121, 122), preferably for all the distributor units (121, 122), through which a time-triggered real-time message is to be transported, attributes of this time-triggered real-time message are assigned a priori to a periodic time slot of the at least one distributor unit (121, 122), preferably to a respective time slot (121, 122) of each distributor unit (121, 122), in which periodic time slot or in which periodic time slots, this time-triggered real-time message is to be transported through the distributor unit (121, 122) or the distributor units (121, 122), and wherein, on the basis of attributes…
