Abstract
This tutorial explores some of the challenges of measuring performance and timing behaviour of reliable embedded systems and explains techniques and strategies for optimization of reliable software. The tutorial explains and compares different techniques for measurement and analysis of software on embedded targets including tracing methods, in-memory analysis and using hardware support. It shows how those techniques can be used for verification of non-functional properties on-target, including in the context of DO178B/C and the new ISO26262 standard to meet the requirements for safety in automobiles. The tutorial presents optimization at a high and low level, looking at strategies and the tradeoffs that occur in reliable software development, introducing a process that helps to ensure that optimization can have the maximum benefit for the minimum effort.
