To offer an infrastructure for autonomous systems offloading parts of their functionality, dynamic distributed systems must be able to satisfy non-functional quality-of-service (QoS) requirements. However, providing hard QoS guarantees without complex global verification that are satisfied even under uncertain conditions is very challenging. In this work, we propose a contract-based QoS assurance ...Show More
Precision time protocol (PTP) is one of the most widely used protocols for clock synchronization in packet-switched networks, on which, among others, the transaction synchronization of the stock markets relies. PTP was not standardized with security as a core requirement and is therefore vulnerable and attractive to manifold kinds of malicious attacks, such as time-delay attacks (TDAs). TDAs, in s...Show More
Controller Area Network (CAN) is the prevailing solution for connecting multiple electronic control units (ECUs) in automotive systems. Every broadcast message on the bus is received by each bus participant and introduces computational overhead to the typically resource-constrained ECUs due to interrupt handling. To reduce this overhead, hardware message filters can be applied. However, since such...Show More
In the field of automotive engineering, broadcast buses, e.g., Controller Area Network (CAN), are frequently used to connect multiple electronic control units (ECUs). Each message transmitted on such buses can be received by each single participant, but not all messages are relevant for every ECU. For this purpose, all incoming messages must be filtered in terms of relevance by either hardware or ...Show More
Many practical real-time systems must be able to sustain several reliability threats induced by their physical environments that cause short-term abnormal system behavior, such as transient faults. To cope with this change of system behavior, online adaptions, which may introduce a high computation overhead, are performed in many cases to ensure the timeliness of the more important tasks while no ...Show More
Self-suspending behavior in real-time embedded systems can have a major and non-trivial negative impact on timing predictability. In this work, we investigate how to analyze the schedulability of segmented self-suspending task systems under a fixed-priority assignment. For this purpose, we introduce the multi-segment workload function as well as the maximum workload function in order to quantify t...Show More
