Real-time systems need time-predictable platforms to allow static analysis of the worst-case
execution time (WCET). Standard multi-core processors are optimized for the average case …

This work investigates the fundamental constraints of anonymous communication (AC)
protocols. We analyze the relationship between bandwidth overhead, latency overhead, and …

In this paper we investigate the feasibility of denial-of-service (DoS) attacks on shared
caches in multicore platforms. With carefully engineered attacker tasks, we are able to cause …

In real-time and safety-critical systems, the move towards multicores is becoming
unavoidable in order to keep pace with the increasing required processing power and to …

In this chapter we define what a mixed-time-criticality system is and what its requirements
are. After defining the concepts that such systems should follow, we described CompSOC …

Safety-relevant systems in the automotive domain often implement features such as lockstep
execution for error detection, and reset and re-execution for error correction. Light-lockstep …

Poor time predictability of multicore processors has been a long-standing challenge in the
real-time systems community. In this paper, we make a case that a fundamental problem that …

Embedded systems often contain multiple applications, some of which have real-time
requirements and whose performance must be guaranteed. To efficiently execute …

Commercial of the shelf multicore processors suffer from timing interferences between cores
which complicates applying them in hard real-time systems like avionic applications. This …
