TY - BOOK A1 - Giese, Holger A1 - Hildebrandt, Stephan A1 - Neumann, Stefan A1 - Wätzoldt, Sebastian T1 - Industrial case study on the integration of SysML and AUTOSAR with triple graph grammars N2 - During the overall development of complex engineering systems different modeling notations are employed. For example, in the domain of automotive systems system engineering models are employed quite early to capture the requirements and basic structuring of the entire system, while software engineering models are used later on to describe the concrete software architecture. Each model helps in addressing the specific design issue with appropriate notations and at a suitable level of abstraction. However, when we step forward from system design to the software design, the engineers have to ensure that all decisions captured in the system design model are correctly transferred to the software engineering model. Even worse, when changes occur later on in either model, today the consistency has to be reestablished in a cumbersome manual step. In this report, we present in an extended version of [Holger Giese, Stefan Neumann, and Stephan Hildebrandt. Model Synchronization at Work: Keeping SysML and AUTOSAR Models Consistent. In Gregor Engels, Claus Lewerentz, Wilhelm Schäfer, Andy Schürr, and B. Westfechtel, editors, Graph Transformations and Model Driven Enginering - Essays Dedicated to Manfred Nagl on the Occasion of his 65th Birthday, volume 5765 of Lecture Notes in Computer Science, pages 555–579. Springer Berlin / Heidelberg, 2010.] how model synchronization and consistency rules can be applied to automate this task and ensure that the different models are kept consistent. We also introduce a general approach for model synchronization. Besides synchronization, the approach consists of tool adapters as well as consistency rules covering the overlap between the synchronized parts of a model and the rest. We present the model synchronization algorithm based on triple graph grammars in detail and further exemplify the general approach by means of a model synchronization solution between system engineering models in SysML and software engineering models in AUTOSAR which has been developed for an industrial partner. In the appendix as extension to [19] the meta-models and all TGG rules for the SysML to AUTOSAR model synchronization are documented. N2 - Bei der Entwicklung komplexer technischer Systeme werden verschiedene Modellierungssprachen verwendet. Zum Beispiel werden bei der Entwicklung von Systemen in der Automobilindustrie bereits früh im Entwicklungsprozess Systemmodelle verwendet, um die Anforderungen und die grobe Struktur des Gesamtsystems darzustellen. Später werden Softwaremodelle verwendet, um die konkrete Softwarearchitektur zu modellieren. Jedes Modell stellt spezifische Entwurfsaspekte mit Hilfe passender Notationen auf einem angemessenen Abstraktionsniveau dar. Wenn jedoch vom Systementwurf zum Softwareentwurf übergegangen wird, müssen die Entwicklungsingenieure sicherstellen, dass alle Entwurfsentscheidungen, die im Systemmodell enthalten sind, korrekt auf das Softwaremodell übertragen werden. Sobald danach auch noch Änderungen auftreten, muss die Konsistenz zwischen den Modellen in einem aufwändigen manuellen Schritt wiederhergestellt werden. In diesem Bericht zeigen wir, wie Modellsynchronisation und Konsistenzregeln zur Automatisierung dieses Arbeitsschrittes verwendet und die Konsistenz zwischen den Modellen sichergestellt werden können. Außerdem stellen wir einen allgemeinen Ansatz zur Modellsynchronisation vor. Neben der reinen Synchronisation umfasst unsere Lösung weiterhin Tool-Adapter, sowie Konsistenzregeln, die sowohl die Teile der Modelle abdecken, die synchronisiert werden können, als auch die restlichen Teile. Der Modellsynchronisationsalgorithmus basiert auf Tripel-Graph-Grammatiken und wird im Detail erläutert. An Hand einer konkreten Transformation zwischen SysML- und AUTOSAR-Modellen, die im Rahmen eines Industrieprojektes entwickelt wurde, wird der Ansatz demonstriert. Im Anhang des Berichts sind alle TGG-Regeln für die SysML-zu-AUTOSAR-Transformation dokumentiert.

Nowadays related compatibility problems have to be addressed in a cumbersome integration and configuration phase at the end of the development process, that in the worst case may fail. Therefore, a number of formal approaches have been developed, which try to guide the upfront decomposition of the embedded real-time system into components such that integration problems related to timing properties can be excluded and that suitable configurations can be found. However, the proposed solutions require a number of strong assumptions that can be hardly fulfilled or the required analysis does not scale well. In this paper, we present an approach based on timed automata that can provide the required guarantees for the later integration without strong assumptions, which are difficult to match in practice. The approach provides a modular reasoning scheme that permits to establish the required guarantees for the integration employing only local checks, which therefore also scales. It is also possible to determine potential configuration settings by means of timed game synthesis. N2 - Die korrekte Komposition individuell entwickelter Komponenten von eingebetteten Realzeitsystemen ist eine Herausforderung, da neben funktionalen Eigenschaften auch nicht funktionale Eigenschaften berücksichtigt werden müssen. Ein Beispiel hierfür ist die Kompatibilität von Realzeiteigenschaften, welche eine entscheidende Rolle in eingebetteten Systemen spielen. Heutzutage wird die Kompatibilität derartiger Eigenschaften in einer aufwändigen Integrations- und Konfigurationstests am Ende des Entwicklungsprozesses geprüft, wobei diese Tests im schlechtesten Fall fehlschlagen. Aus diesem Grund wurde eine Zahl an formalen Verfahren Entwickelt, welche eine frühzeitige Analyse von Realzeiteigenschaften von Komponenten erlauben, sodass Inkompatibilitäten von Realzeiteigenschaften in späteren Phasen ausgeschlossen werden können. Existierenden Verfahren verlangen jedoch, dass eine Reihe von Bedingungen erfüllt sein muss, welche von realen Systemen nur schwer zu erfüllen sind, oder aber, die verwendeten Analyseverfahren skalieren nicht für größere Systeme. In dieser Arbeit wird ein Ansatz vorgestellt, welcher auf dem formalen Modell des Timed Automaton basiert und der keine Bedingungen verlangt, die von einem realen System nur schwer erfüllt werden können. Der in dieser Arbeit vorgestellte Ansatz enthält ein Framework, welches eine modulare Analyse erlaubt, bei der ausschließlich miteinender kommunizierende Komponenten paarweise überprüft werden müssen. Somit wird eine skalierbare Analyse von Realzeiteigenschaften ermöglicht, die keine Bedingungen verlangt, welche nur bedingt von realen Systemen erfüllt werden können.

In case of dynamic collaborations the roles may join and leave the collaboration at runtime and therefore complex structural dynamics can result, which makes it very hard to ensure their correct and safe operation. We present in this paper our approach for modeling and verifying such dynamic collaborations. Modeling is supported using a well-defined subset of UML class diagrams, behavioral rules for the structural dynamics, and UML state machines for the role behavior. To be also able to verify the resulting service-oriented systems, we extended our former results for the automated verification of systems with structural dynamics [7, 8] and developed a compositional reasoning scheme, which enables the reuse of verification results. We outline our approach using the example of autonomous vehicles that use such dynamic collaborations via ad-hoc networking to coordinate and optimize their joint behavior. N2 - Bei der Modellierung Service-orientierter Systeme werden Kollaborationen verwendet, um die Koordination mehrerer Rollen durch Service-Verträge zu beschreiben. Dynamische Kollaborationen erlauben ein Hinzufügen und Entfernen von Rollen zur Kollaboration zur Laufzeit, wodurch eine komplexe strukturelle Dynamik entstehen kann. Die automatische Analyse service-orientierter Systeme wird durch diese erheblich erschwert. In dieser Arbeit stellen wir einen Ansatz zur Modellierung und Verifikation solcher dynamischer Kollaborationen vor. Eine spezielle Untermenge der UML ermöglicht die Modellierung, wobei Klassendiagramme, Verhaltensregeln für die strukturelle Dynamik und UML Zustandsdiagramme für das Verhalten der Rollen verwendet werden. Um die Verifikation der so modellierten service-orientierten Systeme zu ermöglichen, erweiterten wir unsere früheren Ergebnisse zur Verifikation von Systemen mit struktureller Dynamik [7,8] und entwickelten einen kompositionalen Verifikationsansatz. Der entwickelte Verifikationsansatz erlaubt es Ergebnisse wiederzuverwenden. Die entwickelten Techniken werden anhand autonomer Fahrzeuge, die dynamische Kollaborationen über ad-hoc Netzwerke zur Koordination und Optimierung ihres gemeinsamen Verhaltens nutzen, exemplarisch vorgestellt.

They must be able to adapt their structure and behavior at runtime by reconfiguration to react flexibly to changes in the environment. Therefore, a tight integration of structural and behavioral models of the different domains is required. This integration results in complex reconfigurable hybrid systems, the execution logic of which cannot be addressed directly with existing standard modeling, simulation, and code-generation techniques. We present in this paper how our component-based approach for reconfigurable mechatronic systems, M ECHATRONIC UML, efficiently handles the complex interplay of discrete behavior and continuous behavior in a modular manner. In addition, its extension to even more flexible reconfiguration cases is presented.

Potsdam CY - Osnabrück ER - TY - JOUR A1 - Seibel, Andreas A1 - Neumann, Stefan A1 - Giese, Holger T1 - Dynamic hierarchical mega models : comprehensive traceability and its efficient maintenance N2 - In the world of model-driven engineering (MDE) support for traceability and maintenance of traceability information is essential. On the one hand, classical traceability approaches for MDE address this need by supporting automated creation of traceability information on the model element level. On the other hand, global model management approaches manually capture traceability information on the model level. However, there is currently no approach that supports comprehensive traceability, comprising traceability information on both levels, and efficient maintenance of traceability information, which requires a high-degree of automation and scalability. In this article, we present a comprehensive traceability approach that combines classical traceability approaches for MDE and global model management in form of dynamic hierarchical mega models. We further integrate efficient maintenance of traceability information based on top of dynamic hierarchical mega models. The proposed approach is further outlined by using an industrial case study and by presenting an implementation of the concepts in form of a prototype.

Therefore, these systems require to represent information about their complex environment and changing sets of collaboration partners internally. This requirement is in contrast to the usually assumed static structures of embedded systems. In this paper, we present a model-driven approach which overcomes this situation by supporting dynamic data structures while still guaranteeing that valid worst-case execution times can be derived. It supports a flexible resource manager which avoids to operate with the prohibitive coarse worst-case boundaries but instead supports to run applications in different profiles which guarantee different resource requirements and put unused resources in a profile at other applications' disposal. By supporting the proper estimation of worst case execution time (WCET) and worst case number of iteration (WCNI) at runtime, we can further support to create new profiles, add or remove them at runtime in order to minimize the over-approximation of the resource consumption resulting from the dynamic data structures required for the outlined class of advanced systems.
