We present a contract-based technique to achieve reuse of known worst-case execution times (WCET) in conjunction with reuse of software components. For resource constrained systems, or systems where high degree of predictability is needed, classical techniques for WCET-estimation will result in unacceptable overestimation of the execution-time of reusable software components with rich behavior. Our technique allows different WCETs to be associated with subsets of the component behavior. The appropriate WCET for any usage context of the component is selected be means of component contracts over the input domain. In a case-study we illustrate our technique and demonstrate its potential in achieving tight WCET-estimates for reusable components with rich behavior.
