Invited Paper: Statistical, Stochastic or Probabilistic (Worst-Case Execution) Execution Time? - What Impact on the Multicore Composability

Authors: Liliana Cucu-Grosjean

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 121, 22nd International Workshop on Worst-Case Execution Time Analysis (WCET 2024)


Abstract
The problem of estimating worst-case execution times of programs on processors has appeared within the context of critical industries like avionics or space. Rapidly adopted by the real-time scheduling community, worst-case execution time estimates of programs or tasks are mandatory to understand the time behaviour of a real-time system. Analyzing such time behaviour is done, often, with an important pessimism due to the consideration of worst-case scenarios. A decreased pessimism has been obtained by understanding that large execution times of a program have low probability of appearance. Probabilistic (worst-case) execution time notion has been proposed. Nevertheless, independence hypotheses makes difficult today to calculate the probabilistic worst-case execution time of a program and current approaches are built, often, on statistical estimators based on the use of Extreme Value Theory or concentration inequalities. Thus, future probabilistic time analyses are expected to consider worst-case execution times estimates obtained by using statistical estimators on measured execution times instead of probabilistic (worst-case) execution times estimations. Within this paper, we discuss the opportunity of differentiating probabilistic (worst-case) execution times from statistical (worst-case) execution times and how dependence between execution times are better or easier captured by each of the definition, while stochastic execution times could be, also, an appropriate alternative.

A Survey of Probabilistic Timing Analysis Techniques for Real-Time Systems

Authors: Robert I. Davis and Liliana Cucu-Grosjean

Published in: LITES, Volume 6, Issue 1 (2019). Leibniz Transactions on Embedded Systems, Volume 6, Issue 1


Abstract
This survey covers probabilistic timing analysis techniques for real-time systems. It reviews and critiques the key results in the field from its origins in 2000 to the latest research published up to the end of August 2018. The survey provides a taxonomy of the different methods used, and a classification of existing research. A detailed review is provided covering the main subject areas: static probabilistic timing analysis, measurement-based probabilistic timing analysis, and hybrid methods. In addition, research on supporting mechanisms and techniques, case studies, and evaluations is also reviewed. The survey concludes by identifying open issues, key challenges and possible directions for future research.
