Experiences from Applying WCET Analysis in Industrial Settings
Publication Type:
Conference/Workshop Paper
Venue:
The 10th IEEE International Symposium on Object/component/service-oriented Real-time distributed Computing (ISORC2007)
Abstract
Static Worst-Case Execution Time (WCET) analysis is currently taking a step
from research to industrial use. We present a summary of three case studies
where static WCET analysis has been used to analyse production code for
embedded real-time systems. The primary purpose has not been to test the
accuracy of the obtained WCET estimates, but rather to investigate the
practical and methodological difficulties that arise when applying current
WCET analysis methods to these particular kind of systems.In particular, we have been interested in how labor-intensive the analysis
becomes, for instance by estimating the efforts to study the analysed code
in detail, and measuring the number of manual annotations necessary to
perform the analysis. From these observations, we draw some conclusions
about what would be needed to turn static WCET analysis into a useful tool
for embedded and real-time systems software development.
