This work focuses on applying DDS in the context of IEC 61499. The specific objectives are to: 1) present the structure and key feature of DDS, 2) map node-to-node communication in IEC 61499 to the DDS real-time publish-subscribe model including mapping timing requirements to QoS attributes of the publish-subscribe model, and 3) evaluate the performance of DDS communication while comparing it with the more traditional socket-based Ethernet communication.
