Bounding the Worst Case Execution Time (WCET) of programs is essential for real-time systems. To be able to do WCET calculations, the iteration bounds for loops and recursion must...
Embedded hard real-time software systems often need fine-grained parallelism and precise control of timing, things typical real-time operating systems do not provide. The Esterel l...
Embedded software requires concurrency formalisms other than threads and mutexes used in traditional programming languages like C. Actor-oriented design presents a high level abstr...
Abstract. In DSP processors, minimizing the amount of address calculations is critical for reducing code size and improving performance since studies of programs have shown that in...
