“…The method proposed by De Miguel et alt. in [17] uses simulation packages in order to define a simulation model, whose structure and input parameters are derived from UML diagrams. The approach focuses on real-time systems and proposes extensions of UML diagrams (based on the use of stereotypes, tagged values and stereotyped constraints) to express temporal requirements and resource usage.…”

Abstract. We discuss the integration of performance modeling and analysis in the software development process. Various approaches have been recently defined to integrate performance models and specification languages and models to derive or validate non-functional properties of a software system. Such integration of quantitative performance analysis should provide feedback easily understandable by the software designer and system developers. A framework that allows the combination of different performance modeling techniques and methods, defined at different levels of abstraction, should better support performance analysis and validation of complex and heterogeneous software systems during the software development process.

Design of distributed embedded systems is a challenging task and it requires raising the level of abstraction to overcome the complexity of the design. In particular, modeling languages and semantic specification are necessary to address network description at high level of abstraction. Starting from this abstraction view, model manipulation is needed to explore various design alternatives and code generation is required for their simulation. In this paper, we propose the use of unified modeling language diagrams combined with a formal computational model as a key solution to specify requirements, generate design alternatives, and code for simulation. This paper proposes a formal framework and supporting tools to represent the application requirements, the library of network components, the environment description, and the rules to compose them. The framework allows to generate code for design validation by simulation and provides back annotation mechanism of the simulation results to refine the original model.

The design of next-generation networked embedded systems requires to take into account the way in which they exchange information together to provide the desired functionality. In fact, communication patterns and network topology affect the implementation of HW and SW aspects of the nodes and their performance; for this reason the communication infrastructure is becoming a true design space dimension which requires an extension of the traditional flow. The work addresses this issue by providing 1) a model-driven design path for the specification of the communication infrastructure, 2) a methodology to manipulate the network to generate design alternatives, and 3) a technique to generate models for network simulation. New algorithms have been supported by the development of tools to manipulate network specification efficiently and to generate the simulation model automatically so that network alternatives can be explored effectively.
