Estimation of Probabilistic Minimum Inter-arrival Times Using Extreme Value Theory

6th Junior Researcher Workshop on Real-Time Computing (JRWRTC 2012) in conjunction with the 20th International Conference on Real-Time and Network Systems (RTNS 2012) Pont-à-Mousson, France, November 8-9, 2012Verifying timing constraints is the main purpose of analyses for real-time systems. This verification can be done using probabilistic methods, which rely on statistical estimations of certain task parameters. In this paper, we address the problem of determining probability distributions for minimum inter-arrival times of tasks, using statistical methods applied on data obtained through measurements
