Abstract

In order to demonstrably satisfy hard real-time deadlines, a system must be predictable, and in particular the kernel must be predictable. In this paper we present and analyse a predictable kernel related to AORTA, a formal design language for hard real-time systems. The features of the kernel allow AORTA designs to be verifiably and semi-automatically implemented, and enable verified guarantees to be given about the real-time behaviour of the system.
