Embedded systems for critical applications are typically specified with requirements on predictable timing and safety. While ensuring predictable timing, the RTFM-lang (Real-Time For the Masses) model of computation (MoC) currently lacks memory access protection among real-time tasks. In this paper, we discuss how to safely verify task execution given a specification using the RTFM-MoC. Furthermore,...
The mainstream of embedded software development as of today is dominated by C programming. To aid the development, hardware abstractions, libraries, kernels and lightweight operating systems are commonplace. Such kernels and operating systems typically impose a thread based abstraction to concurrency. However, in general thread based programming is hard, plagued by race conditions and dead-locks....
Function Blocks provides a means to model and program industrial control systems. The recently acclaimed IEC 61499 standard allows such system models to be partitioned and executed in a distributed fashion. At device level, such models are traditionally implemented onto programmable logic controllers and industrial PCs. In this paper, we discuss work in progress on developing a mapping allowing to...
