To ensure the correctness of real time systems, it is important to determine the execution time of tasks. The worst case execution time of each task needs to be found in order to determine if the system is schedulable. This thesis aims at bounding the execution time of programs analyzed by KLEE, a symbolic execution engine. This is done by estimating the cycles required on the Cortex-M4 processor. A custom fork of KLEE has been created which outputs additional information about the program under analysis. This information is used by a tool written in Rust which reconstructs the corresponding control flow in optimized assembly code. KLEE analyzes an intermediate representation language, LLVM IR. This representation is used in the compilation process of many programming languages. One of these languages is Rust which has been the primary focus of the tool. Testing has been done on applications written with the RTIC framework. The measured cycles of these applications has been correctly bounded for all test cases.
