In low-resource real-time embedded systems, dynamically changing demands of applications in the form of resource requests, strict deadlines, fault recovery, etc. are non-deterministic in nature. It is difficult for the underlying real-time operating system (RTOS) to satisfy such demands of each and every application. There is no single existing solution to overcome this problem. This paper proposes a generic module-based reflective framework for an RTOS that self modifies and adapts itself to the dynamically changing demands of applications.
