TimeWeaver: A Tool for Hybrid Worst-Case Execution Time Analysis

Authors: Daniel Kästner, Markus Pister, Simon Wegener, and Christian Ferdinand

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 72, 19th International Workshop on Worst-Case Execution Time Analysis (WCET 2019)


Abstract
Many embedded control applications have real-time requirements. If the application is safety-relevant, worst-case execution time bounds have to be determined in order to demonstrate deadline adherence. For high-performance multi-core architectures with degraded timing predictability, WCET bounds can be computed by hybrid WCET analysis which combines static analysis with timing measurements. This article focuses on a novel tool for hybrid WCET analysis based on non-intrusive instruction-level real-time tracing.

A Framework for Static Analysis of VHDL Code

Authors: Marc Schlickling and Markus Pister

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 6, 7th International Workshop on Worst-Case Execution Time Analysis (WCET'07) (2007)


Abstract
Software in real time systems underlies strict timing constraints. These are among others hard deadlines regarding the worst-case execution time (WCET) of the application. Thus, the computation of a safe and precise WCET is a key issue1 for validating the behavior of safety-critical systems, e.g. the flight control system in avionics or the airbag control software in the automotive industry. Saarland University and AbsInt Angewandte Informatik GmbH have developed a successful approach for computing the WCET of a task. The resulting tool, called aiT, is based on the abstract interpretation [3, 4] of timing models of the processor and its periphery. Such timing models are hand-crafted and therefore error-prone. Additionally the modeling requires a hard engineering effort, so that the development process is very time consuming. Because modern processors are synthesized from a formal hardware specification, e.g., in VHDL or VERILOG, the hand-crafted timing model can be developed by manually analyzing the processor specification. Due to the complexity of this step, there is a need for support tools that ease the creation of analyzes on such specifi- cations. This paper introduces the primer work on a framework for static analyzes on VHDL.
