When modelling software components for timing analysis, we typically encounter functional
chains of tasks that lead to precedence relations. As these task chains represent a …

Since worst case response times must be determined repeatedly during the interactive
design of real-time application systems, repeated exact computation of such response times …

Real-time embedded systems are becoming ever more complex. We are reaching the stage
where even if static Response-Time Analysis (RTA) was feasible from a cost and technical …

Providing computer-based services for vehicular systems has evolved to the point where
majority of functions are realised by software. However, the need to provide safety in critical …

We propose a novel model-and component-based technique to support communications-
oriented development of software for vehicular distributed real-time embedded systems. The …

Modern autonomous cars run classic AUTOSAR applications alongside advanced driving
assistance systems on a single-vehicle computer. Ensuring safety and predictability in such …

The increasing acceptance of the Earliest Deadline First (EDF) scheduling algorithm in
industrial environments, together with the continued usage of Fixed Priority (FP) scheduling …

Abstract The ARINC-664, Part 7 (AFDX) standard defines a communication network based
on Ethernet and the UDP/IP protocols. Contrary to general-purpose Ethernet, the timing …

This paper develops an offset-based response-time analysis technique for analyzing
complex distributed real-time systems where processing and communication resources use …

The automotive domain is living in an exciting period triggered by challenging business and
technology drivers, like electrification, autonomous driving, over-the-air software updates …
