Worst-Case Execution Time Clustering for Software Components
Publisher:
Department of Computer Science and Electronics, Mälardalen University
Abstract
For component-based systems, classical techniques for
WCET-estimation produce unacceptable overestimations of
the WCET. This is because software components have more
general behavior in order to support reuse. Existing tools
and methods for component-based software engineering
(CBSE) do not yet adequately consider reusable analyses.
We present a method that allows different WCETs to be
associated with subsets of the component behavior by clustering
WCETs with respect to behavior. The method is intended
to be used for facilitating reusable WCET analysis
for reusable software components. We illustrate our
technique and demonstrate its potential in achieving tight
WCET-estimates for components with rich behavior.
