The state of the art for computation sharing at the edge is traditionally based on Docker and similar pseudo-virtualization features. Our team has been working on an end-to-end architecture that provides strong spatial and temporal isolation similar to what has become standard in avionics communities. In this paper we describe an open-source extension to Linux that we have designed and implemented for our distributed real-time embedded managed systems (DREMS) architecture. The key concepts are the partitioning scheduler, strong security design and a health management interface}, year = {2019}, journal = {IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Magazine}, month = {2019}, }
