The tool supports heterogeneous architectures, complex task dependencies and context aware analysis. It determines system-level performance data such as end-to-end latencies, bus and processor utilisation, and worst-case scheduling scenarios. SymTA/S furthermore combines optimisation algorithms with system sensitivity analysis for rapid design space exploration. The paper gives an overview of current research interests in the SymTA/S project.}, title = {System level performance analysis – the SymTA/S approach}, journal = {IEE Proceedings - Computers and Digital Techniques}, issue = {2}, volume = {152}, year = {2005}, month = {March}, pages = {148-166(18)}, publisher ={}, copyright = {IEE}, url = {https://digital-library.theiet.org/;jsessionid=1mi0gignypxoy.x-iet-live-01content/journals/10.1049/ip-cdt_20045088} }
