Description: |
In embedded and real-time systems such as multimedia, virtual reality, medical applications and defense applications, the results must not only be produced correctly but also timely. The market for real-time software and hardware is huge, and consequently, the real-time technology is getting more and more pervasive. One of the fundamental research problems in the compiler area is to establish an upper bound on the worst time execution time (WCET) of a program or its constituent tasks by static and dynamic program analysis at the level of processor cycles. Many real-time systems are now equipped with instruction and data caches, making the prediction more challenging. Presently, analysis techniques are relatively more mature for instruction caches. In the case of data caches, the time bounds obtained are often too conservative.
