On the Use of Context Information for Precise Measurement-Based Execution Time Estimation

Authors: Stefan Stattelmann and Florian Martin

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 15, 10th International Workshop on Worst-Case Execution Time Analysis (WCET 2010)


Abstract
The present paper investigates the influence of the execution history on the precision of measurement-based execution time estimates for embedded software. A new approach to timing analysis is presented which was designed to overcome the problems of existing static and dynamic methods. By partitioning the analyzed programs into easily traceable segments and by precisely controlling run-time measurements with on-chip tracing facilities, the new method is able to preserve information about the execution context of measured execution times. After an adequate number of measurements have been taken, this information can be used to precisely estimate the Worst-Case Execution Time of a program without being overly pessimistic.

08161 Abstracts Collection – Scalable Program Analysis

Authors: Florian Martin, Hanne Riis Nielson, Claudio Riva, and Markus Schordan

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8161, Scalable Program Analysis (2008)


Abstract
From April 13 to April 18, 2008, the Dagstuhl Seminar 08161 ``Scalable Program Analysis'' was held in the International Conference and Research Center (IBFI), Schloss Dagstuhl. During the seminar, several participants presented their current research, and ongoing work and open problems were discussed. Abstracts of the presentations given during the seminar as well as abstracts of seminar results and ideas are put together in this paper. The first section describes the seminar topics and goals in general. Links to extended abstracts or full papers are provided, if available.

Analysis of path exclusion at the machine code level

Authors: Ingmar Stein and Florian Martin

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 6, 7th International Workshop on Worst-Case Execution Time Analysis (WCET'07) (2007)


Abstract
We present a method to find static path exclusions in a control flow graph in order to refine the WCET analysis. Using this information, some infeasible paths can be discarded during the ILP-based longest path analysis which helps to improve precision. The new analysis works at the assembly level and uses the Omega library to evaluate Presburger formulas.

Data-Flow Based Detection of Loop Bounds

Authors: Christoph Cullmann and Florian Martin

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 6, 7th International Workshop on Worst-Case Execution Time Analysis (WCET'07) (2007)


Abstract
To calculate the WCET of a program, safe upper bounds on the number of loop iterations for all loops in the program are needed. As the manual annotation of all loops with such bounds is difficult and time consuming, the WCET analyzer aiT originally developed by Saarland University and AbsInt GmbH uses static analysis to determine the needed bounds as far as possible. This paper describes a novel data-flow based analysis for aiT to calculate the needed loop bounds on the assembler level. The new method is compared with a pattern based loop analysis already in use by this tool.
