"Making Real-Time Tasks Temporally Predictable";

English abstract:
This talk introduces a new programming paradigm for writing hard real-time code: single-path programming. Every program following this paradigm has only a single possible execution path. The execution time of single-path code is constant and therefore fully predictable. We explain the software and hardware architectures used in single-path programming and show that the single-path paradigm provides a universal solution towards writing temporally predictable code -- every piece of code that has a boundable execution time can be transformed into single-path code.
