In this paper, a generic model for code mobility mechanisms is presented. The proposed model gives system designers the necessary tools to perform a statistical timing analysis on the execution of the mobility mechanisms that can be used to determine the impact of code mobility in distributed real-time applications.engReal-time systemsDistributed embedded systemsMobile systemsCode mobilityQuality of serviceOn the use of code mobility mechanisms in real-time systemsreport
