Abstract
We propose here solutions to the FMTV 2015 challenge of a distributed video processing system using four different formalisms, as well as the description of the challenge itself. This artifact contains several solutions to various subchallenges, and instructions and scripts to reproduce these results smoothly.

From FMTV to WATERS: Lessons Learned from the First Verification Challenge at ECRTS (Invited Paper)

Abstract
We present here the main features and lessons learned from the first edition of what has now become the ECRTS industrial challenge, together with the final description of the challenge and a comparative overview of the proposed solutions. This verification challenge, proposed by Thales, was first discussed in 2014 as part of a dedicated workshop (FMTV, a satellite event of the FM 2014 conference), and solutions were discussed for the first time at the WATERS 2015 workshop. The use case for the verification challenge is an aerial video tracking system. A specificity of this system lies in the fact that periods are constant but known with a limited precision only. The first part of the challenge focuses on the video frame processing system. It consists in computing maximum values of the end-to-end latency of the frames sent by the camera to the display, for two different buffer sizes, and then the minimum duration between two consecutive frame losses. The second challenge is about computing end-to-end latencies on the tracking and camera control for two different values of jitter. Solutions based on five different tools - Fiacre/Tina, CPAL (simulation and analysis), IMITATOR, UPPAAL and MAST - were submitted for discussion at WATERS 2015. While none of these solutions provided a full answer to the challenge, a combination of several of them did allow to draw some conclusions.

M2OS-Mc: An RTOS for Many-Core Processors

Authors: David García Villaescusa, Mario Aldea Rivas, and Michael González Harbour

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 87, Second Workshop on Next Generation Real-Time Embedded Systems (NG-RES 2021)


Abstract
A current trend of industrial systems is reducing space, weight and power (SWaP) through the allocation of different applications on a single chip. This is enabled by the continued improvement of semiconductor technology which allows the integration of multiple cores in a single processor chip, as the processors are prevented to continue increasing their clock rate due to the "power-wall". The use of Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) multi-core processors for real-time purposes presents issues due to the shared bus used to access the shared memory. An alternative to the use of multi-core processors are the many-core processors with tens to hundreds of processors in the same chip, using different scalable ways to interconnect their cores. This paper presents the adaptation of the M2OS Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) and its simplified Ada run-time for mesh-based many-core processors. This RTOS is called M2OS-mc and has been tested on the Epiphany III many-core processor (referred in this paper simply as Epiphany), a many-core which has 16 cores connected by a Network-on-Chip (NoC) consisting of a 4x4 2D mesh. In order to have a synchronized way to send messages between tasks through the NoC independently of the core where they are being executed, we provide sampling port communication primitives.
