The performance requirements for contemporary microprocessors are increasing as rapidly as their number of applications grows. By accelerating the clock, performance can be gained...
In this paper we present a technique for Worst-Case Execution Time WCET analysis for pipelined processors. Our technique uses a standard simulator instead of special-purpose pipel...
The conventional classification of inter-instruction dependencies (data, anti and output dependencies) provides a basic scheme for the analysis of pipeline hazards in pipelined in...
Estimating the Worst Case Execution Time (WCET) of a program on a given processor is important for the schedulability analysis of real-time systems. WCET analysis techniques typic...
Architectural advancements in modern processor designs increase average performance with features such as pipelines, caches, branch prediction, and out-of-order execution. However...
