Abstract

To support portability, worst-case execution time (WCET) analysis of Java byte code is performed at two levels -- machine-independent program-flow analysis at a higher level and machine-dependent timing analysis of individual program constructs at a lower level. This paper contributes a WCET analysis that computes worst-case execution frequencies of Java-Byte Codes within the software being analysed and accounts for platform dependent information, i.e., the processor's pipeline. The main part of the approach is platform independent, only a limited analysis is needed on a per-platform basis.
