The widespread adoption of embedded microprocessor-based systems for safety critical applications mandates the use of co-design tools able to evaluate system dependability at ever...
While hardware caches are generally effective at improving application performance, they greatly complicate performance prediction. Slight changes in memory layout or data access p...
Correctly specifying requirements for composite systems is essential to system safety, particularly in a distributed development environment. Goal-oriented requirements engineerin...
— An important property of embedded systems is dependability. Today this addresses mostly safety and reliability. Guaranteeing these properties is normally done by adding redunda...
As a starting point for static program analysis a control flow graph (CFG) is needed. If only the binary executable is available, this CFG has to be reconstructed from sequences ...
