The use of caches poses a difficult tradeoff for architects of real-time systems. While caches provide significant performance advantages, they have also been viewed as inherently...

Recent progress in worst case timing analysis of programs has made it possible to perform accurate timing analysis of pipelined execution and instruction caching, which is necessa...
Static worst-case execution time (WCET) analysis is done by modeling the hardware behavior. In this paper we describe a WCET analysis technique to analyze systems with function ca...
ct Consider an arbitrary program P which is to be executed on a computer with two alternative cache memories. The rst cache has k sets and u blocks in each set, this is denoted a ...
Real-time schedulability theory requires a priori knowledge of the worst-case execution time (WCET) of every task in the system. Fundamental to the calculation of WCET is a schedu...
