As Johnny mentioned, Real-time (RT) CORBA is covered in the
Advanced CORBA Programming with TAO course (the description of
which is accessible here):

http://www.ociweb.com/education/services/descrip/dist

We also cover RT CORBA in detail in the TAO Developer's Guide,
which can be purchased here:

http://www.theaceorb.com/purchase/index.html

There are numerous tests and examples in the TAO code base that
illustrate the use of RT CORBA features, including priorities:

$TAO_ROOT/tests/RTCORBA/
$TAO_ROOT/examples/RTCORBA/

and in OCI's Distribution of TAO:

$TAO_ROOT/DevGuideExamples/RTCORBA/

I'm sure Dr. Schmidt could recommend some papers that describe
RT CORBA features, as well.
