Activity meeting Munich, March 13, 2008 Timing Analysis Activity leader : Björn Lisper (Y4) MDH
Report from Review Meeting ● Deliverables had been accepted in advance and were said to be of very good quality ● Surprisingly, a presentation was nevertheless required ● Other leading people from the cluster unavailable: PM did presentations for compilers and for timing analysis ● Reviewers were happy with the results. ● Condensed format of review preferred
Minor comments ● Security not really fully integrated ● What will happen to Website, tools etc. at end of project? ● Deliverables for Y 4 due by middle of November ● Final review on Dec. 12, 2008 (on the project as a whole) ● Money has to be spent until end of August
Summer School ● Summer school will be organized in September ; Speakers for CTA have been selected (Wilhelm (keynote), Leupers, Marwedel (+Falk; on memory architecture aware compilation), Thiele (mapping applications to MPSoCs)) ● 1 month extension for Artist2; nevertheless suggested to make payments no later than in August, if at all feasible. ● URL: Summer-School-2008.html ● Vercors Parc Naturel Regional
1st Workshop on mapping of Applications to MPSoCs (ArtistDesign) ● June 16/17th at St. Goar, Germany ● Joint workshop Artist2/ArtistDesign/Hipeac2/ACOTES; participants from other projects only by acceptance ● Workshop registration: send form to Peter Marwedel ● Hotel registration: directly with Schloss Rheinfels; be sure to mention “ARTIST”. ● See Applications-to-MPSoCs.html for more info ● Limited seats, rooms etc; register early!
Promises for Y4 Problem to be Tackled over the next 12 months (Sept 2007 – Aug 2008) ● Integration of components. Finalize ALF. Embed ALF in AIR (computation semantics). ● Flow description format. Continue research. Set up Flow Description Challenge. ● WCET Tool Challenge ● Timing Predictability. Will be continued in PREDATOR. ● Measurement-based Timing Analysis. Continue work on framework. Experiments. Emphasis: transferring current monolithic framework into modular tool platform. ● WCET-Aware Compilation. Optimizations: influence of standard optimizations, novel WCET-aware. Integrate flow analysis techniques into Dortmund compiler.
Promises for Y4 (2) Year4 milestone: “Version 2 integration of existing components” Indicators for Integration: ● Working integration of Mälardalen’s flow analysis with aiT and Bound-T. ● Path description attributes for AIR. ● Successful embedding of ALF in AIR. ● Joint publications about Timing Analysis.
