Quantitative Evaluation of Embedded Systems• Mutual introductions• The context of the course:

Model Based / Driven Design• Organisation of the course

Introducing the lecturers

Anne Remke (UT)

Pieter Cuijpers (TU/e)

Marielle Stoelinga (UT)

Marco Zuniga (TUD)

Why a tele-lecture ?

• Link between education and research• 3TU cooperation :

Specialization in research vs Broad engineering education• Efficiency

Why a class-room ?

• More time for questions & (tele)-communication• Rewind button• Better insight in your progress• More convenient homework

flipped

Last years evaluation (warning)

• Bad tele-connections• Three (too) different topics• Too many notational conventions• Too abstract for hands-on

embedded systems enthousiasts• Too much mandatory homework

Determine an appropriate communication schedule that guarantees given latency and

throughput constraints for this control network and predict the

associated network load.

General planning of QEES

• Dataflow - Timed Automata - Probabilistic Automata• Tele-lectures & flipped classroom• Watch videos at home…

…make exercises in class• Some additional material in class• One mandatory assignment (pass/fail)

(One case-study document – to be updated 3 times)

• One exam

Program for DataflowDate Weblecture - at home Additional – in class Exercises – in class

11-11-’13 1 – intro dataflow(This one we’ll watch in class)

Intro to QEESCounters and daters

Simulate a given graph and set up matrix equations for it.

15-11-’13 2 – throughput3 – periodic schedule(watch these at home, in the train, wherever, but not in class!)

Eigenvalues and linear programs

Determine the MCM and periodic schedule for a graph.

18-11-’13 4 – latency 15 – latency 2

Monotonicity Determine the latency of a graph.

22-11-’13 6 – buffering7 – latency 3

TDMA + intro assignment, multi-rate, intro to SDF3

Determine minimum buffersizes of a graph.

Deadline: 9-DEC-2013 : As a first step in the case study, you will model a small cyber-physical control network in SDF3, in which TDMA communication using wirelessHART is used. You will analyse worst-case latency and throughput that is achieved, and add buffers to determine the network load.

Deadline: 6-JAN-2013 : As a second step in the case study, you will use UPPAAL to make an optimal TDMA schedule for the cyber-physical system and see how latency and throughput are improved. These results are then fed back into the dataflow model.

Furthermore, you will discuss in a concluding chapter the different roles of the three formalisms studied in this course in the engineering design-cycle.
