Abstract: This thesis introduces new compiler-based optimization approaches for multi-core systems to improve their hard real-time characteristics on varying levels of abstraction. To increase scalability of optimizations and analyses with an insight into the microarchitectural level, an ILP-based derivation of shared resource access metrics is introduced. The evaluation results show, that in many cases, the optimization approaches introduced in this thesis can significantly improve the hard real-time characteristics of multi-core systems.
