\subsubsection*{Motivation:}
%\emph{Informal description of the purpose of the PP (3-5 lines)}
Every embedded system consists of software which is written in a high
level language, compiled to machine language and executed on a
processor. For robust embedded systems new verified compilation,
simulation and specification methods are necessary to optimize for
performance, power, space, concurrency and reliability.

%Compilation Techniques for Reliability
Because of the exponential increase of the number of transistors and
the continuing decrease of the feature sizes of current processors
soft errors mainly caused by energetic particles are becoming an
important design issue for robust embedded systems. Blome et
al.~\cite{Blome+06} observed that a majority of faults that affect the
architectural state of a processor come from the register file. Lee
and Shrivastava and proposed different solutions to cope with this
problem. The first assigns variables depending on their lifetime to
either the ECC protected or the unprotected part of a register file to
balance energy consumption and reliability \cite{LeeShrivastava09a}.
The second spills registers to ECC protected memory if the register
contents are not used for a long period \cite{LeeShrivastava09c}.
There exist complete software solutions which use different forms of
code duplications \cite{Oh+02a,Reis+05}, which do failure
virtualization \cite{WapplerMueller08} or which use techniques like
control flow checking \cite{Oh+02b}. A complete overview of processor
description languages and generation of compilers and simulators from
processors specifications gives the book of Mishra and Dutt \cite{MishraDutt08}.
A good survey of current instruction set simulators gives our chapter
in the Handbook of Signal Processing systems \cite{BrHoKr09}. A famous
instruction set simulator with modelling of energy consumtion is Wattch
\cite{BrooksTiwariMartonosi00}.

%\emph{Brief description of your own contributions to the related
%scientific state-of-the art (5-10 lines)}
Jens Knoop has a long history on work on program analysis with topics
like partial redundancy elimination or lazy code motion
\cite{knoop:DSP:2008:1575,conf/cc/XueK06,scholz04}. Recently he
changed his research focus on worst case execution time analysis
\cite{SchrSchoKn09,Prantl:WLPE2008,prantl_et_al:DSP:2008:1661,
kirner_et_al:DSP:2008:1657,kirner_et_al:DSP:2007:1197}. He is involved
in the organization of many compiler conferences and since 2002 program
cochair of the yearly workshop on compiler optimization meets verification.
Andreas Krall does research in the area of architecture description
languages and the automatic generation of highly optimizing compilers,
efficient instruction set simulators and hardware from one single
specification of a processor \cite{BrFeKrRi09,BrEbKr07,FaKrHo07,
FarKrStBrand06,Krall+04micro}. An important focus is on optimization
techniques for embedded processors
\cite{EbBrSchKrWiKa08,MeKr07,PrKrHo06,HiKr03} as he lead the Christian
Doppler research laboratory {\em compilation techniques for embedded
processors} with partners from industry (Infineon, OnDemand
Microelectronics).

\subsubsection*{Work Plan (first 4 years):}
%\emph{Brief description of how
%you intend to conduct the actual research during the first 4 years. Be sure
%to also describe and (coarsely) quantify the resources (staff, cost of
%special equipment) required for this work in a table. (20-30 lines)}
Compilation techniques for robust embedded systems comprise different areas.
Therefore, the project is divided into three work packages: compilation and
simulation techniques for reliabiltiy, verified compilation and worst case
execution time analysis.
\paragraph*{WP1 - Compilation and Simulation Techniques for Reliability}
In previous work we have developed a processor description language
with a very concise semantics from where we automatically generate
optimized compilers \cite{BrEbKr07} and high efficient instruction set
simulators \cite{BrFeKrRi09}. This environment we use as testbed for
our compiler optimizations for embedded processors
\cite{EbBrSchKrWiKa08,PrKrHo06,MeKr07}. We will extend this
environment to do research on compilation and simulation techniques to
enhance the reliability of processor/memory systems by mixed
hardware/software and pure software techniques.
\begin{itemize}
\item Specification method to specify an energy consumption model in
a processor specification.
\item Specification method for redundancy and error correction in the
processor specification
\item Specification method for fault injection and fault checking in
the processor specification
\item Generation of optimized instruction set simulators from the
extended processor specification
\item Generation of optimizing compilers from the extended processor
specification
\item Research into new compiler optimizations to increase reliability by
pure software solutions, mixed hardware/software solutions and
balancing performance, code space, reliability and energy consumption
\item Research of correctness proofs and validation of the new optimizations
\end{itemize}
\paragraph*{WP2 - Verified Compilation}
translation verification, specification of semantics of IRs solving
subproblems.
\paragraph*{WP3 - Worst Case Ececution Time Analysis}
WCET

\hline
\end{tabular}
\subsubsection*{Goals (last 4 years):}
%\emph{Brief description of the
%eesearch topics to be addressed during the last 4 years. Make sure to
%explicitly stress what the significant additions to the scientific
%knowledge are, and why they are important. (20-30 lines)}

for ensuring functional and non-functional program and system requirements
Replacing trust by proof
Certifying compilation, proof-carrying code, translation validation
Verified compilers, verifying compilation for RESs
Making legacy applications fit to and available on RESs
Techniques for adjusting and decompiling legacy applications
\subsubsection*{Collaboration with other PPs:}
%\emph{List the PPs you are expecting to collaborate with, and describe briefly
%the topic and nature of such a collaboration. (10-20 lines)}
\begin{itemize}
\item PP Composition of Non-functional Requirements [I.S.T.A./Henzinger]:

models, hardware and software models.

\item PP Modeling \& Analysis of Robust Distributed Systems [E182/Schmid]:
