Abstract

This work proposes a framework for supporting the development of safety-critical real-time systems that exploit hardware accelerators developed through FPGAs with dynamic partial reconfiguration capabilities.

The method allows deriving response-time bounds to verify the schedulability of a real-time task set under given constraints and assumptions. The approach has been practically validated on the Zynq platform, showing that it can actually be supported by state-of-the-art technologies.
