CSL's ThreadedFrameStream (was Re: [CLAM] RT and port sizes (was Re: AudioPorts Usage))

[Xavier Amatriain]

You might want to take a look at the book Real-Time Design Patterns: 
Robust Scalable Architecture for Real-Time Systems

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0201699567/002-3928786-8279221?v=glance

There are also a bunch of articles related to the topic that you can get 
through Citeseer such as the ones by Zalewski:

Real-Time Software Architectures and Design Patterns: Fundamental 
Concepts and Their Consequences (1999)
http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/zalewski99realtime.html

Real-Time Software Design Patterns (2002)
http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/zalewski02realtime.html


I am also waiting for Ross Bencina and Roger Dannenberg to publish the 
material for the workshop they gave at
ICMC on Real-time software.*
