A Processor Extension for Cycle-Accurate Real-Time Software
Certain hard real-time tasks demand precise timing of events, but the usual software solution of periodic interrupts driving a scheduler only provides precision in the millisecond ...

WCET-Centric Software-controlled Instruction Caches for Hard Real-Time Systems
Cache memories have been extensively used to bridge the gap between high speed processors and relatively slower main memories. However, they are sources of predictability problems...

Architectural support for real-time task scheduling in SMT processors
In Simultaneous Multithreaded (SMT) architectures most hardware resources are shared between threads. This provides a good cost/performance trade-off which renders these architec...

Hardware support for real-time operating systems
The growing complexity of embedded applications and pressure on time-to-market has resulted in the increasing use of embedded real-time operating systems. Unfortunately, RTOSes ca...
