Additional information
<03>Worst-Case Execution Time (WCET) analysis is recognised as being problematic. One promising technique, used in industry and academia, is search-based testing. This paper, and an earlier conference paper (at the Symposium on Search Based Software Engineering, 2009), presents the first investigation of the use of multiple criteria to guide the heuristic search for inputs to give rise to extreme execution times (e.g. targeting cache misses as a maximisation objective in addition to the direct objective of execution time). In section 4, a range of objectives are evaluated showing there is no single right choice. Then, software specific guidance is provided.
