The feasibility test of a hard real time system must not only take into account the temporal behavior of the application tasks but also the behavior of the run-time support in charge of executing applications. The paper is devoted to the schedulability analysis of a run-time support for distributed dependable hard real time applications. In contrast to previous works that consider rather simple run-time supports (e.g. a real time kernel made of a simple tick scheduler and an unreliable communication protocol), our work deals with a complex run-time support with fault tolerance capabilities and made of multiple tasks that invoke each other.
