Real-time systems 2 deals with the design and analysis of real-time multiprocessor systems. Unlike real-time systems 1, the focus is on end-2-end throughput and latency analysis of applications running on MULTI-processor systems. The course consist of lectures, some small experiments and a large assignment in which the theory will be applied given a real-life embedded multicore system. The focus of the lectures is on dataflow analysis techniques and how these dataflow analysis techniques related and compare to other end-2-end analysis techniques. The presented techniques are not only useful for analysis of the system but also for the computation of a mapping and the optimization of applications such that real-time constraints are satisfied. The presented techniques are intended for real-time stream processing applications as found in radios, radar, and video processing systems, and industrial control systems.
