PLC-Automata are a class of real-time automata suitable to describe the behavior of polling real-time systems. PLC-Automata can be compiled to source code for PLCs, a hardware wide...
Methods for Worst-Case Execution Time (WCET) analysis have been known for some time, and recently commercial tools have emerged. However, the technique has so far not been much use...

Abstract. The design of critical embedded real-time systems requires high confidence in the architecture and the implemented functionalities. Classically, such functions are suppor...
Abstract. The real-time process algebra (RTPA) is a set of new mathematical notations for formally describing system architectures, and static and dynamic behaviors. It is recogniz...
We introduce PLC-Automata as a new class of automata which are tailored to deal with real-time properties of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). These devices are often used in...
