EnergyAnalyzer: Using Static WCET Analysis Techniques to Estimate the Energy Consumption of Embedded Applications

Authors: Simon Wegener, Kris K. Nikov, Jose Nunez-Yanez, and Kerstin Eder

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 114, 21th International Workshop on Worst-Case Execution Time Analysis (WCET 2023)

Abstract
This paper presents EnergyAnalyzer, a code-level static analysis tool for estimating the energy consumption of embedded software based on statically predictable hardware events. The tool utilises techniques usually used for worst-case execution time (WCET) analysis together with bespoke energy models developed for two predictable architectures - the ARM Cortex-M0 and the Gaisler LEON3 - to perform energy usage analysis. EnergyAnalyzer has been applied in various use cases, such as selecting candidates for an optimised convolutional neural network, analysing the energy consumption of a camera pill prototype, and analysing the energy consumption of satellite communications software. The tool was developed as part of a larger project called TeamPlay, which aimed to provide a toolchain for developing embedded applications where energy properties are first-class citizens, allowing the developer to reflect directly on these properties at the source code level. The analysis capabilities of EnergyAnalyzer are validated across a large number of benchmarks for the two target architectures and the results show that the statically estimated energy consumption has, with a few exceptions, less than 1% difference compared to the underlying empirical energy models which have been validated on real hardware.

Quasi Isolation QoS Setups to Control MPSoC Contention in Integrated Software Architectures

Authors: Sergio Garcia-Esteban, Alejandro Serrano-Cases, Jaume Abella, Enrico Mezzetti, and Francisco J. Cazorla

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 262, 35th Euromicro Conference on Real-Time Systems (ECRTS 2023)

Abstract
The use of integrated architectures, such as integrated modular avionics (IMA) in avionics, IMA-SP in space, and AUTOSAR in automotive, running on Multi-Processor System-on-Chip (MPSoC) is on the rise. Timing isolation among the different software partitions or applications thereof in an integrated architecture is key to simplifying software integration and its timing validation by ensuring the performance of each partition has no or very limited impact on others despite they share MPSoC’s hardware resources. In this work, we contend that the increasing hardware support for Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees in modern MPSoCs can be leveraged via specific setups to provide strong, albeit not full, isolation among different software partitions. We introduce the concept of Quasi Isolation QoS (QIQoS) setups and instantiate it in the Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+. To that end, out of the millions of setups offered by the different QoS mechanisms, we identify specific QoS configurations that isolate the traffic of time-critical software partitions executing in the core cluster from that generated by contender partitions in the programmable logic. Our results show that the selected isolation setup results in performance variations of the partitions run in the computing cores that are below 6 percentage points, even under scenarios with extremely high traffic coming from the programmable logic.

Leveraging Hardware QoS to Control Contention in the Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC

Authors: Alejandro Serrano-Cases, Juan M. Reina, Jaume Abella, Enrico Mezzetti, and Francisco J. Cazorla

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 196, 33rd Euromicro Conference on Real-Time Systems (ECRTS 2021)

Abstract
The interference co-running tasks generate on each other’s timing behavior continues to be one of the main challenges to be addressed before Multi-Processor System-on-Chip (MPSoCs) are fully embraced in critical systems like those deployed in avionics and automotive domains. Modern MPSoCs like the Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ incorporate hardware Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms that can help controlling contention among tasks. Given the distributed nature of modern MPSoCs, the route a request follows from its source (usually a compute element like a CPU) to its target (usually a memory) crosses several QoS points, each one potentially implementing a different QoS mechanism. Mastering QoS mechanisms individually, as well as their combined operation, is pivotal to obtain the expected benefits from the QoS support. In this work, we perform, to our knowledge, the first qualitative and quantitative analysis of the distributed QoS mechanisms in the Xilinx UltraScale+ MPSoC. We empirically derive QoS information not covered by the technical documentation, and show limitations and benefits of the available QoS support. To that end, we use a case study building on neural network kernels commonly used in autonomous systems in different real-time domains.

Normalisation for Dynamic Pattern Calculi

Authors: Eduardo Bonelli, Delia Kesner, Carlos Lombardi, and Alejandro Rios

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 15, 23rd International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications (RTA'12) (2012)

Abstract
The Pure Pattern Calculus (PPC) extends the lambda-calculus, as well as the family of algebraic pattern calculi, with first-class patterns; that is, patterns can be passed as arguments, evaluated and returned as results. The notion of matching failure of the PPC not only provides a mechanism to define functions by pattern matching on cases but also supplies PPC with parallel-or-like, non-sequential behaviour. Therefore, devising normalising strategies for PPC to obtain well-behaved implementations turns out to be challenging. This paper focuses on normalising reduction strategies for PPC. We define a (multistep) strategy and show that it is normalising. The strategy generalises the leftmost-outermost strategy for lambda-calculus and is strictly finer than parallel-outermost. The normalisation proof is based on the notion of necessary set of redexes, a generalisation of the notion of needed redex encompassing non-sequential reduction systems.

09171 Executive Summary – Adaptive, Output Sensitive, Online and Parameterized Algorithms

Authors: Jérémy Barbay, Rolf Klein, Alejandro López-Ortiz, and Rolf Niedermeier

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 9171, Adaptive, Output Sensitive, Online and Parameterized Algorithms (2009)

Abstract
Traditionally the analysis of algorithms measures the complexity of a problem or algorithm in terms of the worst-case behavior over all inputs of a given size. However, in certain cases an improved algorithm can be obtained by considering a finer partition of the input space. As this idea has been independently rediscovered in many areas, the workshop gathered participants from different fields in order to explore the impact and the limits of this technique, in the hope to spring new collaboration and to seed the unification of the technique.

Parameterized Analysis of Online Steiner Tree Problems

Authors: Spyros Angelopoulos

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 9171, Adaptive, Output Sensitive, Online and Parameterized Algorithms (2009)

Abstract
Steiner tree problems occupy a central place in both areas of approximation and on-line algorithms. Many variants have been studied from the point of view of competitive analysis, and for several of these variants tight bounds are known. However, in several cases, worst-case analysis is overly pessimistic, which fails to explain the relative performance of algorithms. We show how adaptive analysis can help resolve this problem. As case studies, we consider the Steiner tree problem in directed graphs, and the Priority Steiner tree problem.

Adaptive Analysis of On-line Algorithms

Authors: Reza Dorrigiv and Alejandro Lopez-Ortiz

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6421, Robot Navigation (2007)

Abstract
On-line algorithms are usually analyzed using competitive analysis, in which the performance of on-line algorithm on a sequence is normalized by the performance of the optimal on-line algorithm on that sequence. In this paper we introduce adaptive/cooperative analysis as an alternative general framework for the analysis of on-line algorithms. This model gives promising results when applied to two well known on-line problems, paging and list update. The idea is to normalize the performance of an on-line algorithm by a measure other than the performance of the on-line optimal algorithm OPT. We show that in many instances the perform of OPT on a sequence is a coarse approximation of the difficulty or complexity of a given input. Using a finer, more natural measure we can separate paging and list update algorithms which were otherwise undistinguishable under the classical model. This createas a performance hierarchy of algorithms which better reflects the intuitive relative strengths between them. Lastly, we show that, surprisingly, certain randomized algorithms which are superior to MTF in the classical model are not so in the adaptive case. This confirms that the ability of the on-line adaptive algorithm to ignore pathological worst cases can lead to algorithms that are more efficient in practice.
