Abstract

This paper will present a new method, based on the notion of abstract interpretation, that can be used to derive path and loop annotations automatically for object-oriented real-time programs. Normally, these annotations, necessary to get a tight calculation of the worst case execution time (WCET), must be given manually by the programmer. The method is illustrated by showing the analysis of an example in Smalltalk.
