Abstract

his paper examines the problem of determining bounds on execution time of real-time programs. Execution time estimation is generally useful in real-time software verification phase, but may be used in other phases of the design and execution of real-time programs (scheduling, automatic parallelizing, etc.). This paper is devoted to the worst-case execution time (WCET) analysis. We present a static WCET analysis approach aimed to automatically extract flow information used in WCET estimate computing. The approach combines symbolic execution and path enumeration. The main idea is to avoid unfolding loops performed by symbolic execution-based approaches while providing tight and safe WCET estimate.
