The P-SOCRATES Timing Analysis Methodology for Parallel Real-Time Applications Deployed on Many-Core Platforms

This paper presents the timing analysis methodology developed in the European project PSOCRATES (Parallel Software Framework for Time-Critical Many-core Systems). This timing analysis methodology is defined for parallel applications that must satisfy both performance and real-time requirements and are executed on modern many-core processor architectures. We discuss the motivation and objectives of the project, the timing analysis flow that we proposed, the tool that has been developed to automatize it, and finally we report on some of the preliminary results that we have obtained when applying this methodology to the three application use-cases of the project. 1998 ACM Subject Classification B.8.2.
