We investigate the preemptive scheduling of periodic tasks with hard deadlines. We show that, even in the uniprocessor case, no polynomial time algorithm can test the feasibility ...

— Legacy systems that do not conform to the norms and regulations imposed by recent safety standards have to be upgraded to meet safety requirements. In this paper, we describe a...
Many industrial real-time systems have evolved over a long period of time and were initially so simple that it was possible to predict consequences of adding new functionality by c...

Component based development is a promising approach for embedded systems. Typical for embedded software is the presence of resource constraints in multiple dimensions. An essentia...
While hardware caches are generally effective at improving application performance, they greatly complicate performance prediction. Slight changes in memory layout or data access p...
