Modern embedded applications usually have real-time constraints and they are implemented using heterogeneous multiprocessor systems-on-chip. Dimensioning a system requires accurat...

This paper presents techniques to tightly integrate worstcase execution time (WCET) information into a compiler framework. Currently, a tight integration of WCET information into ...
The performance skeleton of an application is a short running program whose performance in any scenario reflects the performance of the application it represents. Specifically, th...
Caches play an important role in embedded systems by bridging the performance gap between high speed processors and slow memory. At the same time, caches introduce imprecision in ...
We present an extension to an existing SPARC V8 instruction set simulator, SimICS, to support accurate profiling of branches and instruction cache misses. SimICS had previously su...
