While hardware caches are generally effective at improving application performance, they greatly complicate performance prediction. Slight changes in memory layout or data access p...
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...
In preemptive real-time systems, a tighter estimate of the Worst Case Response Time(WCRT) of the tasks can be obtained if the layout of the tasks in memory is included in the esti...
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...
The contribution of this paper is threefold. First, an improvement to a previously published paper on the timing analysis of Controller Area Network (CAN) in the presence of trans...
