This paper presents results and observations from a survey of 120 industry practitioners in
the field of real-time embedded systems. The survey provides insights into the …

Industrial Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are com-plex heterogeneous and distributed
computing systems, typically integrating and interconnecting a large number of subsystems …

Determining a soft or firm real-time task's probabilistic worst-case response time is a central
goal when quantifying and bounding the probability of deadline misses, but current …

Equipping real-time systems with soft error resilience can be challenging due to the tradeoff
of the timing and failure requirements for mixed-criticality tasks. Violation of these …

Meeting the rising global demand for healthcare diagnostic tools is crucial, especially with a
shortage of medical professionals. This issue has increased interest in utilizing deep …

The majority of prior academic research into mixed criticality systems assumes that if high-
criticality tasks continue to execute beyond the execution time limits at which they would …

Safety and control functions of modern automotive systems are implemented as chains of
periodic data producer/consumer tasks run at different rates. To simplify the development of …

Global scheduling reduces the average response times as it can use the available
computing cores more efficiently for scheduling ready tasks. However, this flexibility poses …

Estimating safe upper bounds on execution times of programs is required in the design of
predictable real-time systems. When multi-core, instruction pipeline, branch prediction, or …

Response-time analysis (RTA) has been a means to evaluate the temporal correctness of
real-time systems since the 1970 s. While early analyses were successful in capturing the …
