NDDS-Network Data Distribution System. NDDS is commercial network middleware from RealTime Innovations that implements a publish-subscribe model. The publish-subscribe model is an information based paradigm where there are information producers and consumers. NDDS provides fast, deterministic data distribution over standard IP networks. This is accomplished via the UDP transport mechanism and a protocol built on top of UDP to ensure the delivery of messages. NDDS was designed as a laboratory tool for the integration of networked instruments. As a commercial product it has been ported to numerous operating systems including VxWorks, Windows and several versions of Unix. Given NDDS’ commercial background it has a well staffed support center.
