Abstract
Memory corruption is one of the most common software failures. For sequential software and multi- tasking software with synchronized data accesses, it has been shown that program faults causing memory cor- ruption can be detected by analyzing the relations be- tween defines and uses of variables (DU-based testing). However, such methods are insufficient in preemptive systems, since they lack the ability to detect inter-task shared variable dependencies. In this paper, we propose the use of a system level shared variable DU analy- sis of preemptive multi-tasking real-time software. By deriving temporal attributes of each access to shared data using WCET analysis, and combining this infor- mation with the real-time schedule information, our method also detects inter-task shared variable depen- dencies. The paper also describes how we extended the SWEET tool to derive these temporal attributes.

Using a WCET Analysis Tool in Real-Time Systems Education

Authors: Samuel Petersson, Andreas Ermedahl, Anders Pettersson, Daniel Sundmark, and Niklas Holsti

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 1, 5th International Workshop on Worst-Case Execution Time Analysis (WCET'05) (2007)

Abstract
To reach a more widespread use, WCET analysis tools need to be a standard part in the education of embedded systems developers. Many real-time courses in academia use Lego Mindstorms, an off-the-shelf kit of Lego bricks for building and controlling small prototype robots. We describe work on porting the Bound-T WCET analysis tool to the Lego Mindstorms microprocessor; the Renesas H8/3292. We believe that this work will make students, and indirectly the industry of tomorrow, aware of the benefits of WCET analysis tools. We also present the real-time laboratory framework in which this WCET analysis tool will be used. The framework has been developed with schedulability and timing predictability in mind, and is already used in a number of real-time courses given at M¨alardalen University in Sweden. The developed WCET tool and the real-time laboratory framework will be freely available for academic use.
