Conditional branches connect the values of program variables with the execution paths and thus with the execution times, including the worstcase execution time (WCET). Flow analys...
Execution and communication traces are central to performance modeling and analysis. Since the traces can be very long, meaningful compression and extraction of representative beha...
A technique for estimating the cost of executing a loop nest in parallel (parallel start-up overhead) is described in this paper. This technique is of utmost importance for paralle...
This paper presents the influence of the loop nest splitting source code optimization on the worst-case execution time (WCET). Loop nest splitting minimizes the number of executed...
Most WCET analysis techniques only provide an upper bound on the worst case execution time as a constant value. However, it often appears that the execution time of a piece of cod...
