The present paper investigates the influence of the execution history on the precision of measurementbased execution time estimates for embedded software. A new approach to timing...
Bounding the Worst Case Execution Time (WCET) of programs is essential for real-time systems. To be able to do WCET calculations, the iteration bounds for loops and recursion must...
In this paper we present a technique for Worst-Case Execution Time WCET analysis for pipelined processors. Our technique uses a standard simulator instead of special-purpose pipel...
Caches are notorious for their unpredictability. It is difficult or even impossible to predict if a memory access results in a definite cache hit or miss. This unpredictability i...
In preemptive real-time systems, a tighter estimate of the Worst Case Response Time(WCRT) of the tasks can be obtained if the layout of the tasks in memory is included in the esti...
