Winston: Revisiting iterative compilation for WCET minimization
Valentin Pasquale, Isabelle Puaut · 2022
Static Worst-Case Execution Time (WCET) estimation techniques take as input the binary code of a program and output a conservative estimate of its execution time. While compilers, and iterative compilation, usually optimize for the average-case, previous work such as [7, 23] has shown that it is also possible to use existing optimization and iterative compilation techniques to lower the WCET estimates drastically.
