ABSTRACT
Most embedded control systems react on events in the real world by reading sensors and controlling actuators in real-time. This general behavior can be directly mapped onto event-driven systems in a natural and straightforward manner for a large variety of applications. Further real-time analysis and profiling on the same level of abstraction is possible for event-driven systems. This significantly helps developers of deeply embedded real-time applications. In this paper we introduce simulative profiling concepts and static analysis basics for the real-time analysis of event-driven systems. Furthermore we present a prototype analysis tool for the REFLEX operating system that integrates real-time analysis into the software development cycle.

Comparison of Generally Applicable Mechanisms for Preventing Embedded Event-Driven Real-Time Systems from Interrupt Overloads
ECBS-EERC '15: Proceedings of the 2015 4th Eastern European Regional Conference on the Engineering of Computer Based SystemsThis paper is related to event-driven embedded systems whose function can be divided into the real-time (RT) and non-RT parts. Such a system must be designed so that all predetermined timing constraints are met at runtime, even in adverse conditions ...
