TACLeBench: A Benchmark Collection to Support Worst-Case Execution Time Research

Engineering related research, such as research on worst-case execution time, uses experimentation to evaluate ideas. For these experiments we need example programs. Furthermore, to make the research experimentation repeatable those programs shall be made publicly available. We collected open-source programs, adapted them to a common coding style, and provide the collection in open-source. The benchmark collection is called TACLeBench and is available from GitHub in version 1.9 at the publication date of this paper. One of the main features of TACLeBench is that all programs are self-contained without any dependencies on standard libraries or an operating system. 1998 ACM Subject Classification C.3 [Special-Purpose and Application-Based Systems] Real-Time and Embedded Systems
