  • Abstract
    This paper presents a method to determine the latency of memory instructions, aimed for use in WCET tools. We use a technique known as value analysis. Considering a processor with different data memory latencies, value analysis is used to determine the possible values of processor registers statically, allowing the recognition of memory addresses (main memory or ScratchPad Memory) in order to obtain tighter WCET upper bounds.
