An Approach to the Timing Analysis of Hierarchical Systems
Marco Panunzio and Tullio Vardanega
13th IEEE International Conference on Embedded and Real-Time Computing Systems and Applications
Abstract
Two architectural paradigms for the development of hierarchical systems arguably stand out for their flexibility and ease of reconfiguration: the server-based architecture and the priority-band architecture. Whilst the former has been deeply investigated, the latter, a fresh addition to a mainstream programming language standard, still lacks an accurate study of its timing behaviour. In this paper we relate those two architectural paradigms and devise timing analysis equations for the priority-band systems off the solid roots of the server-based theory.
