  abstract=      "Real-time systems require guaranteed timely delivery of
     messages; failure to deliver a message on time may result in
     failure of the system and possible damage to life and
     property. We describe here an extension and implementation
     of an algorithm developed by Kandlur et al. for guaranteed
     message delivery. We extend this by adding two-phase
     randomized routing in the channel establishment procedure;
     this scheme requires each route to go first to a randomly
     chosen intermediate node, and only then to its actual
     destination. This scheme balances the load demonstrably
     better than direct routing, with respect to the likelihood
     of acceptance of each individual channel. Given certain
     constraints on the generation and size of messages, it is
     possible to schedule those messages such that messages
     arrive within their desired deadlines. Experiments on an
     8-node network demonstrate the feasibility of the approach,
     and provide verification of Kandlur's algorithm."
