Présentation de l'entreprise :

Le CEA est un acteur majeur de la recherche, au service des citoyens, de l'économie et de l'Etat.

Il apporte des solutions concrètes à leurs besoins dans quatre domaines principaux : transition énergétique, transition numérique, technologies pour la médecine du futur, défense et sécurité sur un socle de recherche fondamentale. Le CEA s'engage depuis plus de 75 ans au service de la souveraineté scientifique, technologique et industrielle de la France et de l'Europe pour un présent et un avenir mieux maîtrisés et plus sûrs.

Implanté au coeur des territoires équipés de très grandes infrastructures de recherche, le CEA dispose d'un large éventail de partenaires académiques et industriels en France, en Europe et à l'international.

Les 20 000 collaboratrices et collaborateurs du CEA partagent trois valeurs fondamentales :

* La conscience des responsabilités
* La coopération
* La curiosité

Missions :

Le CEA est un acteur majeur de la recherche, au service des citoyens, de l'économie et de l'Etat.

Your involvement in this project will facilitate the creation of a predictability toolbox that streamlines the exploration of design trade-offs, ultimately leading to the production of highly tailored RISC-V processors designed for Internet of Things (IoT) applications and embedded platforms used in safety-critical systems. A key aspect of predictability analysis involves assessing the worst-case execution time (WCET) of a processor by examining how a given binary code progresses through successive pipeline stages. Timing Anomalies (TAs) are execution phenomena known to hinder these analyses and must be supported.
Your main responsibilities will include:
* Proposing and developing an approach to generate formal models of processor
pipelines. This involves utilizing a cycle-accurate intermediate representation of
pipelines incorporating their micro-architecture optimizations. While LECA has
previously developed formal models of pipelines for TA detection within code, these models were manually created.
* Utilizing the formally generated models as part of a pipeline analysis in a static WCET analysis tool provided by a collaborative partner. Specifically, the outcomes of cache analyses will guide the identification of temporal variations to be considered in the detection of TAs within basic blocks of input code.
* Defining microarchitectural-level instructions to alleviate the presence of various types of TAs at basic-block boundaries. These instructions will play a crucial role in the exploration process of RISC-V embedded microarchitectures, particularly when targeting safety-critical systems.

You are also expected to :
* Communicate about the work to the project partners, but also work directly with the French partners of the project;
* Participate in the scientific dissemination of the team's research results (contributions to publications in international conferences) and in the development of our innovations (writing of patents).
* To carry out your mission, you will benefit from a first class environment at CEA LIST with access to a large number of reference tools and a strong experience in the application of formal methods to the verification of properties such as temporal anomalies.
