We present a parallel compilation method for embedded control applications. The method is fully automatic and scales up, being based on low-complexity heuristics. Unlike classical compilation, it also takes as input non-functional requirements, e.g. real-time or resource limits.
The main objective is not optimization per se, but the respect of requirements. To this end, static resource allocation and code generation algorithms perform a safe accounting of non-functional properties. Accounting starts from per-component time and memory footprint worst-case bounds, automatically obtained through calls to state-of-the-art static analysis tools. Experiments show that our method produces efficient code for large-scale, real-life avionics applications.
