Unarbitrated contention over shared resources at different levels of the memory hierarchy
represents a major source of temporal interference. Hardware manufacturers are …

When adopting multi-core systems for safety-critical applications, certification requirements
mandate bounding the delays incurred in accessing shared resources. This is the case of …

Consolidating hard real-time systems onto modern multi-core Systems-on-Chip (SoC) is an
open challenge. The extensive sharing of hardware resources at the memory hierarchy …

The reliability and security of safety-critical real-time systems are of utmost importance
because the failure of these systems could incur severe consequences (eg, loss of lives or …

Genetic algorithms can be used to generate input data in a real-time system that produce the
worst-case execution time of a task. While generating the test data, the fitness function is …

In the last decade there has been a steady uptrend in the popularity of embedded multi-core
platforms. This represents a turning point in the theory and implementation of real-time …

Consider fixed-priority preemptive partitioned scheduling of constrained-deadline sporadic
tasks on a multiprocessor. A task generates a sequence of jobs and each job has a deadline …

One of the primary sources of unpredictability in modern multi-core embedded systems is
contention over shared memory resources, such as caches, interconnects, and DRAM …

We are witnessing a race to meet the ever-growing computation requirements of emerging
AI applications to provide perception and control in autonomous vehicles—eg, self-driving …

The estimation of worst-case execution time (WCET) is a critical activity in the analysis of
real-time systems. Evolutionary algorithms are frequently employed for the determination of …
