The following topics are dealt with: object-oriented computing; component-oriented computing; service-oriented computing; and real-time distributed computing.
In this paper we are interested in mixed-criticality embedded real-time applications mapped on distributed heterogeneous architectures. The architecture provides both spatial and temporal partitioning, thus enforcing enough separation for the critical applications. With temporal partitioning, each application is allowed to run only within predefined time slots, allocated on each processor. The sequence...
Throughout many application areas of embedded and cyber-physical systems there is a demand to integrate more and more applications such that they share common resources. These applications may have different levels of criticality with respect to temporal or fault-tolerance properties and we call the result of their integration a mixed-criticality system. The communication network is a resource of...
Current embedded systems offer enough performance to integrate on a single chip jobs that required several distributed devices in the past. The execution environment of such an integrated architecture should satisfy key requirements, such as, temporal predictability, fault containment or flexibility. In this paper we present these requirements and argue about the suitability of embedded hypervisors...
Often, an integrated mixed-criticality system is built in an environment which provides separation functionality for available on-board resources. In this paper we treat such an environment: the PikeOS separation kernel -- a commercial real-time embedded operating system. PikeOS allows applications with different safety and security levels to run on the same hardware. Obviously, a mixed-criticality...
This paper presents a low-level memory and hardware model suitable for analyzing embedded systems software written in high-level languages such as C. The key feature of this approach is that it combines information that can be discovered from the C code itself with information from the executable binary program. Further, it also integrates effects caused through hardware dependencies. We describe...
This paper provides an overview of some principles and mechanisms to securely operate mixed-criticality real-time systems on embedded platforms. Those principles are illustrated with PharOS a complete set of tools to design, implement and execute real-time systems on automotive embedded platforms. The keystone of this approach is a dynamic time-triggered methodology that supports full temporal isolation...
The performance analysis and validation of distributed real-time systems poses significant challenges due to high accuracy requirements at the measurement tools. A fully synchronized time-scale at ultrafine granularity is not easy to generate. Even though there are several analyzer tools for standard switched Ethernet, these tools cannot be applied in time-triggered networks, since they do not meet...
