In this paper, we are interested in the implementation of control-command applications, such as the flight control system of an aircraft for instance, on multi-core hardware. Due to certification and safety issues, time-predictability - in the sense that the timing behavior must be analysable and validable off-line - is a mandatory feature. We present a complete framework, from high-level system specification in synchronous languages, to implementation on a multi-core hardware platform, which enforces time-predictability at every step of the development process. The framework is based on automated code generation tools to speed-up the development process and to eliminate error-prone human-made translation steps.
