Mikro-symposium with ASTEC scientific evaluators


Using Interactive Compilation to Improve the Development of Embedded Systems Applications

David Whalley
Florida State University, USA

Abstract
This work is currently in progress. I talk about how a compiler can be modified to interact with a user. Features of the interactive compilation system include viewing the low-level representation of a function, interactively specifying the order of code-improving transformations, allowing previously specified transformations to be undone, providing the ability to specify code-improving transformations by hand, and validating code-improving transformations.


A methodology for the construction of scheduled systems

Joseph Sifakis
VERIMAG, France

Abstract
We study a methodology for constructing scheduled systems by successive restriction of the behavior of the processes to be scheduled. Restriction is used to guarantee satisfaction of two kinds of constraints: schedulability constraints characterizing timing properties of the processes, and constraints characterizing particular scheduling policies including process priorities, non idling and preemption.

The methodology is based on the controller synthesis paradigm. The main results deal with the specification of scheduling policies as safety constraints and the simplification of the synthesis process by application of a composability principle.
