In safety-critical embedded real-time systems the timing behaviour is of highest importance, because applications underlie timing constraints that have to be met. Otherwise the system might fail causing harm to humans, the environment, or the system itself. Therefore, such hard real-time systems have to provide timing guarantees. Since the timing behaviour of the system does not only depend on ...
