Abstract

We propose a methodology for worst-case analysis of systems with discrete observable signals. The methodology can be used to verify different properties of systems such as power consumption, timing performance or resource utilization. We also propose an application of the methodology to timing analysis of embedded systems implemented on a single processor. The analysis provides a bound on the response time of such systems. It is typically very efficient, because it does not require a state space search.
