Runtime performance evaluation of embedded software
نویسنده
چکیده
When developing real-time system software it is often desired to study the execution timing of processes and programs. Worst-case execution times, location of bottlenecks, processor utilization could be found if the programmer could analyze programs at runtime. The system software described in this paper provides a way to measure the execution times. The system makes minor changes to the performance and enables flexibility to the evaluation method. The system, and the changes made in the real-time kernel in order to implement the system, are described. It was experienced during evaluation of a real-time garbage collector that the system was valuable.

An efficient runtime instruction block verification for secure embedded systems
—Embedded system designers face a unique set of challenges in making their systems more secure, as these systems often have stringent resource constraints or must operate in harsh or physically insecure environments. One of the security issues that have recently drawn attention is software integrity, which ensures that the programs in the system have not been changed either by an accident or an...
متن کاملCompile-time Optimization and Customization in Java and C + MPI
To achieve both of runtime efficiency and maintainability of large-scale and complicated software especially with dynamicity, portability, and concurrency, programmers have strong desire to customize and optimize their software as they need. For exmaple, they may need to perform platform-specific optimizations so as to adapt their software from embedded systems and hand-held devices all the way...
متن کاملARVE: Aspect-Oriented Runtime Verification Environment
Software testing, including runtime verification, is essential for developing reliable software products. As is often the case with the development of industrial software products, the scale of a test program tends to be larger than that of a product program. As the test program is inherent in the product program, it is often structured in an ad hoc manner. We consider that improving modularity...
متن کاملA Three-Tier Approach for Composition of Real-Time Embedded Software Stacks
Many component models and frameworks have been proposed to abstract and capture concerns from Real-Time and Embedded application domains, based on high-level component-based approaches. However, these approaches tend to propose their own fixed-set abstractions and ad-hoc runtime platforms, whereas the current trend emphasizes more flexible solutions, as embedded systems must constantly integrat...
متن کاملArchitecture for Embedded Software Integration With Reusable Components
The state-of-art approaches to embedded real-time software development are very costly due mainly to their reliance on proprietary design, ad-hoc implementation, labor-intensive performance tuning and veri cation. This high development cost can be reduced signi cantly by using model-based integration of reusable components (models and/or software modules). To this end, we propose an architectur...
