Modern multicore processors, such as the Cell Broadband Engine, achieve high performance by equipping accelerator cores with small “scratchpad” memories. The price for increase...

This paper presents a method for tight prediction of worst-case performance of data caches in highperformance real-time systems. Our approach is to distinguish between data struct...
Caches have become increasingly important with the widening gap between main memory and processor speeds. However, they are a source of unpredictability due to their characteristi...
This paper describes techniques to estimate the worst case execution time of executable code on architectures with data caches. The underlying mechanism is Abstract Interpretation...
Data caches are essential in modern processors, bridging the widening gap between main memory and processor speeds. However, they yield very complex performance models, which make...
