With the increasing use of multi-core platforms in safetyrelated domains, aircraft system integrators and authorities exhibit a concern about the impact of concurrent access to shared-resources in the Worst-Case Execution Time (WCET). This paper highlights the need for accurate memory-centric scheduling mechanisms for guaranteeing prioritized memory accesses to Real-Time safety-related components of the system. We implemented a software technique called cache coloring that demonstrates that isolation at timing and spatial level can be achieved by managing the lines that can be evicted in the cache. In order to show the effectiveness of this technique, the timing properties of a real application are considered as a use case, this application is made of parallel tasks that show different trade-offs between computation and memory loads.Keywords: Real-Time systems · Multi-core · Determinism · Memory interference.3 Safety-critical software guidelines in different domains like ISO-26262 or IEC-61508 [6] are quite similar in many technical aspects.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
