Programming Time-Predictable Processors with Lingua Franca

Authors: Magnus Mæhlum, Erling Rennemo Jellum, Shaokai Lin, Marten Lohstroh, Martin Schoeberl, Sverre Hendseth, and Edward A. Lee

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 128, Sixth Workshop on Next Generation Real-Time Embedded Systems (NG-RES 2025)

Abstract
Precision-timed (PRET) machines are an alternative to modern processors that provide precise control over the timing of software execution. This paper describes a platform for developing predictable real-time embedded systems that pair PRET machines with Lingua Franca (LF), a recent reactor-based coordination language with temporal semantics. Specifically, we port LF to FlexPRET, a PRET machine with flexible hardware thread scheduling. We evaluate single-threaded LF with a tight control loop style application on four embedded platforms, including the FlexPRET. The results reveal the underlying platform’s timing variability and how LF plus FlexPRET can remedy this timing variability. Finally, we compare single-threaded to multithreaded LF, again concerning timing. The four embedded platforms used are FlexPRET (bare-metal), RP2040 (bare-metal), nRF52 (with Zephyr), and Raspberry Pi 3b+ (with Linux). Our results indicate that FlexPRET with LF is attractive when precise timing is essential.

HiPART: High-Performance Technology for Advanced Real-Time Systems

Authors: Sara Royuela, Adrian Munera, Chenle Yu, and Josep Pinot

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 127, 16th Workshop on Parallel Programming and Run-Time Management Techniques for Many-Core Architectures and 14th Workshop on Design Tools and Architectures for Multicore Embedded Computing Platforms (PARMA-DITAM 2025)

Abstract
Cyber-physical systems (CPS) attempt to meet real-time and safety requirements by using hypervisors that provide isolation via virtualisation and Real-Time Operating Systems that manage the concurrency of system tasks. However, the operating system’s (OS) decisions may hinder the efficiency of tasks because it needs more awareness of their specific intricacies. Hence, one critical limitation to efficiently developing CPSs is the lack of tailored parallel programming models that can harness the capabilities of advanced heterogeneous architectures while meeting the requirements integral to CPSs, such as real-time behaviour and safety requirements. While conventional HPC languages, like OpenMP and CUDA, cannot accommodate critical non-functional properties, safety languages, like Rust and Ada, are limited in their capabilities to exploit complex systems efficiently. On top of that, accessibility to the programming task is essential to making the system usable to different domain experts. HiPART tackles these challenges by developing a comprehensive framework holistically addressing efficiency, interoperability, reliability, and sustainability. The HiPART framework, based on OpenMP, provides tailored support for (1) real-time behaviour and safety requirements and (2) the efficient exploitation of advanced parallel and heterogeneous processor architectures. This support is exposed to users through extensions to the OpenMP specification and its implementation in the LLVM framework, including the compiler and the OpenMP runtime library. With this framework, HiPART will contribute to realising more capable and reliable autonomous systems across various domains, from autonomous mobility to space exploration.

Validating Static WCET Analysis: A Method and Its Application

Authors: Wei-Tsun Sun, Eric Jenn, and Hugues Cassé

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

Abstract
WCET analysis is a key activity in the development of safety critical real-time systems. Whether upper bounds on WCETs are obtained using static analysis or measurements, the confidence on the compliance of a system with its temporal requirements directly depends on the confidence on these estimations. Static WCET analysis based on abstract interpretation takes benefits from its formal foundations. However, it also strongly depends on the correctness of the underlying models. We hereby show how we have validated the version of the data flow static analyser of OTAWA applied to the AURIX TC275 target processor.

Toward Contention Analysis for Parallel Executing Real-Time Tasks

Authors: Fabrice Guet, Luca Santinelli, Jérôme Morio, Guillaume Phavorin, and Eric Jenn

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 63, 18th International Workshop on Worst-Case Execution Time Analysis (WCET 2018)

Abstract
In measurement-based probabilistic timing analysis, the execution conditions imposed to tasks as measurement scenarios, have a strong impact to the worst-case execution time estimates. The scenarios and their effects on the task execution behavior have to be deeply investigated. The aim has to be to identify and to guarantee the scenarios that lead to the maximum measurements, i.e. the worst-case scenarios, and use them to assure the worst-case execution time estimates. We propose a contention analysis in order to identify the worst contentions that a task can suffer from concurrent executions. The work focuses on the interferences on shared resources (cache memories and memory buses) from parallel executions in multi-core real-time systems. Our approach consists of searching for possible task contenders for parallel executions, modeling their contentiousness, and classifying the measurement scenarios accordingly. We identify the most contentious ones and their worst-case effects on task execution times. The measurement-based probabilistic timing analysis is then used to verify the analysis proposed, qualify the scenarios with contentiousness, and compare them. A parallel execution simulator for multi-core real-time system is developed and used for validating our framework. The framework applies heuristics and assumptions that simplify the system behavior. It represents a first step for developing a complete approach which would be able to guarantee the worst-case behavior.
