Abstract
The invention relates to a device for integrating software components of a distributed real-time software system, said components being run on target hardware and on a development system, wherein the target hardware comprises computing nodes, and the development system comprises one or more computers. The device is designed as an expanded development system in which the computing nodes of the target hardware are connected to the computers of the development system via one or more time-controlled distributor units, wherein the expanded development system has a sparse global time of known precision, and wherein the computing nodes of the target hardware are connected to the computers of the development system via the one or more time-controlled distributor units such that the data content of a TT message template of a TT platform of the target hardware can be provided both by a simulation process of the development system as well as by an operative process of the target hardware in a timely manner.
