Towards Lingua Franca on the Patmos Processor

Real-time embedded systems demand higher reliability than any other computer systems. These systems require special modeling paradigms to satisfy time constraints. This paper introduced a design method by combining T-CREST, a time-predictable multi-core hardware, with Lingua Franca, a coordination framework that generates deterministic time-predictable code. We executed a Lingua Franca piece of software on T-CREST platform and performed preliminary experiments demonstrating its correct functionality.
