This paper presents experiences from five industry collaboration projects performed between 2004 – 2009 where solutions for embedded systems trace recording have been developed and evaluated; in four cases for specific industrial systems and in the last case as a generic solution for a commercial real-time operating system, in collaboration with the RTOS company. The experiences includes technical...
In this paper, we are exploring the approach to utilize system-specific static analyses of code with the goal to improve software quality for specific software systems. Specialized analyses, tailored for a particular system, make it possible to take advantage of system/domain knowledge that is not available to more generic analyses. Furthermore, analyses can be selected and/or developed in order to...
In this paper, we look at identifying temporal differences between different versions of Complex Real-Time Embedded Systems (CRTES) by using timing traces representing response times and execution times of tasks. In particular, we are interested in being able to reason about whether a particular change to CRTES will impact on their temporal performance, which is difficult to answer due to the complicated...
To maintain, analyze and reuse many of today's Complex Real-Time Embedded Systems (CRTES) is very difficult and expensive, which, nevertheless, offers high business value in response to great concern in industry. In such context, not only functional behavior but also non-functional properties of systems have to be assured, i.e., Worst-Case Response Time (WCRT) of tasks has to be known. However, due...
This paper presents Rapid RT, a novel statistical approach to Worst-Case Response-Time (WCRT) analysis targeting complex embedded real-time systems. The proposed algorithm combines Extreme Value Theory (EVT) and other statistical methods in order to produce a probabilistic WCRT estimate. This estimate is calculated using response time data from either Monte Carlo simulations of a detailed model of...
Due to the high cost of modeling, model-based techniques are yet to make their impact in the embedded systems industry, which still persist on maintaining code-oriented legacy systems. Re-engineering existing code-oriented systems to fit model-based development is a risky endeavor due to the cost and efforts required to maintain correspondence between the code and model. We aim to reduce the cost...
