      Probabilistic Timing Analysis (PTA) reduces the amount of information needed to provide tight WCET estimates in real-time systems with respect to classic timing analysis. PTA imposes new requirements on hardware design ...
    • Contention-aware performance monitoring counter support for real-time MPSoCs 

      Jalle Ibarra, Javier; Fernández, Mikel; Abella Ferrer, Jaume; Andersson, Jan; Patte, Mathieu; Fossati, Luca; Zulianello, Marco; Cazorla Almeida, Francisco Javier (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2016)
      Conference lecture
      Open Access
      Tasks running in MPSoCs experience contention delays when accessing MPSoC’s shared resources, complicating task timing analysis and deriving execution time bounds. Understanding the Actual Contention Delay (ACD) each task ...
    • Data bus slicing for contention-free multicore real-time memory systems 

      Jalle Ibarra, Javier; Quiñones, Eduardo; Abella Ferrer, Jaume; Fossati, Luca; Zulianello, Marco; Cazorla Almeida, Francisco Javier (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2016)
      Conference report
      Open Access
      Memory access contention is one of the main contributors to tasks' execution time variability in real-Time multicores. Existing techniques to control memory contention based on time-sharing memory access do not scale well ...
    • Deconstructing bus access control policies for real-time multicores 

      Jalle Ibarra, Javier; Abella Ferrer, Jaume; Quiñones, Eduardo; Fossati, Luca; Zulianello, Marco; Cazorla Almeida, Francisco Javier (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2013)
      Conference report

      Multicores may satisfy the growing performance requirements of critical Real-Time systems which has made industry to consider them for future real-time systems. In a multicore, the bus contention-control policy plays a key ...
    • Improving early design stage timing modeling in multicore based real-time systems 

      Trilla, David; Jalle Ibarra, Javier; Fernández, Mikel; Abella Ferrer, Jaume; Cazorla Almeida, Francisco Javier (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2016)
      Conference report
      Open Access
      This paper presents a modelling approach for the timing behavior of real-time embedded systems (RTES) in early design phases. The model focuses on multicore processors - accepted as the next computing platform for RTES - ...
    • Improving time predictability of shared hardware resources in real-time multicore systems : emphasis on the space domain 

      Jalle Ibarra, Javier (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2016-07-18)
      Doctoral thesis
      Open Access
      Critical Real-Time Embedded Systems (CRTES) follow a verification and validation process on the timing and functional correctness. This process includes the timing analysis that provides Worst-Case Execution Time (WCET) ...
    • Validating a timing simulator for the NGMP multicore processor 

      Jalle Ibarra, Javier; Abella Ferrer, Jaume; Fossati, Luca; Zulianello, Marco; Cazorla Almeida, Francisco Javier (European Space Agency (ESA), 2016)
      Conference report
      Open Access
      Timing simulation is a key element in multicore systems design. It enables a fast and cost effective design space exploration, allowing to simulate new architectural improvements without requiring RTL abstraction levels. ...
