In previous work, we motivated the need for using the OSGi framework with the Real-Time Specification for Java(RTSJ). We found anumber of issues with using these technologies together. One of the isues we discovered was unbounded dynamism caused by the absence of admissions control. Components can be uninstalled, installed and updated without regulation. This means that it is impossible to guarantee resources to components. In this paper, we propose a solution to the unbounded dynamism problem by providing an admission control protocol for real-time OSGi. We also provide a priority assignment approach to support temporal isolation.
