“…The presented framework is built around the ITE-Sim simulator (Walla et al, 2012b) and is used to evaluate design alternatives in an early stage of the E/E architecture development process. The framework automatically generates the necessary input files for the simulator and provides a visual representation of the simulation results to the user.…”

“…However, the internal behavior of each functional block is further specified through a separate trace primitive description. This concept was introduced in (Walla et al, 2012b). It allows an annotation of each functional block with it's computation and communication properties, i.e.…”

“…When the modeling is finished, the business logic component performs post configuration checks and calls an XML generator, to transform the configuration data into XML input to the simulator. The external simulator component is described well in (Walla et al, 2012b). After getting the input from the VME, the simulator communicates back to the VME via standard output and a specialized communication protocol based on sockets.…”

The E/E (electric/electronic) architecture of a modern vehicle is a complex distributed system, where up to 80 electronic control units (ECUs), interconnected by several communication buses, need to collaborate with each other in order to implement the various comfort and safety features. The presented E/E design space exploration framework supports engineers during the development process of new E/E architectures by providing a graphical modeling and simulation environment with an interactive visualization of simulation-based results. Furthermore, it contains an advanced business logic which administrates the modeling, storing, retrieving and cloning of evaluation sessions consisting of complex experiments. Due to a high-level modeling approach, future architectures can be evaluated in respect to power consumption and performance values already in an early stage of the design process and design alternatives can be easily compared with each other.
