Download or read book Reverse Engineering of Real Time System Models From Event Trace Recordings written by Andreas Sailer and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 1 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Model-driven approaches are experiencing an increasing acceptance in the automotive domain thanks to the availability of the AUTOSAR standard, which defines an open software architecture for the model-based development of real-time systems and a corresponding development methodology. However, the process of creating models of existing system components is often difficult and time consuming, especially when legacy code is involved or information about the exact timing is needed. The research community tackles this problem by developing algorithms for automatically deriving characteristics of the system's timing behaviour, e.g., response times and resource blockings from various artefacts such as source code or runtime measurements. This work focuses on reversely engineering an AUTOSAR-compliant model, which can be used for further processing including timing simulation and optimisation, via a dynamic analysis from trace recordings of a real-time system. Although software reverse engineering via dynamic analysis has a long history, little research targets embedded systems and its use for multi-core architectures is largely unresearched. Furthermore, related work mainly discusses the analysis of individual characteristics of a real-time system, such as execution times or stimulation patterns instead of creating a description of the entire system. Huselius, whose work is among the publications most related to the topic of this thesis, proposes a technique to reverse engineer a model that reflects the general temporal behaviour of the original real-time software. However, like other existing solutions, it was not developed with AUTOSAR in mind. It is also not feasible to make this approach applicable to the automotive domain, because Huselius has not considered some required details, such as activation patterns, scheduling information, and compliance to the standardised development methodology of AUTOSAR. We want to tackle this deficiency by introducing, in this work, an approach that seizes on Huselius's considerations and extends them in order to make them applicable to the automotive domain. To do so, we present CoreTAna, a prototypical tool that derives an AUTOSAR compliant model of a real-time system by conducting dynamic analysis using trace recordings. Its reverse engineering approach is designed in such a way that it fits seamlessly into the methodology specified by AUTOSAR. CoreTAna's current features are explained and their benefits for reverse engineering are highlighted, and a framework for evaluating the quality of synthesised models is described. Motivated by the challenge of assessing the quality of reverse engineered models of real-time software, we also introduce a mathematical measure for comparing trace recordings from embedded real-time systems regarding their temporal behaviour and a benchmark framework based on this measure, for evaluating reverse engineering tools such as CoreTAna. This framework considers common system architectures and also includes randomly generated systems and systems of projects in the automotive domain and other industries. Finally, CoreTAna's performance and applicability are evaluated on the basis of this benchmark.

Download or read book Model Management and Analytics for Large Scale Systems written by Bedir Tekinerdogan and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2019-09-14 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Model Management and Analytics for Large Scale Systems covers the use of models and related artefacts (such as metamodels and model transformations) as central elements for tackling the complexity of building systems and managing data. With their increased use across diverse settings, the complexity, size, multiplicity and variety of those artefacts has increased. Originally developed for software engineering, these approaches can now be used to simplify the analytics of large-scale models and automate complex data analysis processes. Those in the field of data science will gain novel insights on the topic of model analytics that go beyond both model-based development and data analytics. This book is aimed at both researchers and practitioners who are interested in model-based development and the analytics of large-scale models, ranging from big data management and analytics, to enterprise domains. The book could also be used in graduate courses on model development, data analytics and data management. - Identifies key problems and offers solution approaches and tools that have been developed or are necessary for model management and analytics - Explores basic theory and background, current research topics, related challenges and the research directions for model management and analytics - Provides a complete overview of model management and analytics frameworks, the different types of analytics (descriptive, diagnostics, predictive and prescriptive), the required modelling and method steps, and important future directions

Download or read book Model Driven Software Development written by Markus Völter and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-06-26 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Model-Driven Software Development (MDSD) is currently a highly regarded development paradigm among developers and researchers. With the advent of OMG's MDA and Microsoft's Software Factories, the MDSD approach has moved to the centre of the programmer's attention, becoming the focus of conferences such as OOPSLA, JAOO and OOP. MDSD is about using domain-specific languages to create models that express application structure or behaviour in an efficient and domain-specific way. These models are subsequently transformed into executable code by a sequence of model transformations. This practical guide for software architects and developers is peppered with practical examples and extensive case studies. International experts deliver: * A comprehensive overview of MDSD and how it relates to industry standards such as MDA and Software Factories. * Technical details on meta modeling, DSL construction, model-to-model and model-to-code transformations, and software architecture. * Invaluable insight into the software development process, plus engineering issues such as versioning, testing and product line engineering. * Essential management knowledge covering economic and organizational topics, from a global perspective. Get started and benefit from some practical support along the way!

Download or read book Model Driven Software Development written by Sami Beydeda and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-11-11 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstraction is the most basic principle of software engineering. Abstractions are provided by models. Modeling and model transformation constitute the core of model-driven development. Models can be refined and finally be transformed into a technical implementation, i.e., a software system. The aim of this book is to give an overview of the state of the art in model-driven software development. Achievements are considered from a conceptual point of view in the first part, while the second part describes technical advances and infrastructures. Finally, the third part summarizes experiences gained in actual projects employing model-driven development. Beydeda, Book and Gruhn put together the results from leading researchers in this area, both from industry and academia. The result is a collection of papers which gives both researchers and graduate students a comprehensive overview of current research issues and industrial forefront practice, as promoted by OMG’s MDA initiative.
