A Compositional Approach for Schedulability Analysis of Distributed Avionics Systems
This work presents a compositional approach for schedulability analysis of
Distributed Integrated Modular Avionics (DIMA) systems that consist of
spatially distributed ARINC-653 modules connected by a unified AFDX network. We
model a DIMA system as a set of stopwatch automata in UPPAAL to verify its
schedulability by model checking. However, direct model checking is infeasible
due to the large state space. Therefore, we introduce the compositional
analysis that checks each partition including its communication environment
individually. Based on a notion of message interfaces, a number of message
sender automata are built to model the environment for a partition. We define a
timed selection simulation relation, which supports the construction of
composite message interfaces. By using assume-guarantee reasoning, we ensure
that each task meets the deadline and that communication constraints are also
fulfilled globally. The approach is applied to the analysis of a concrete DIMA
system.Comment: In Proceedings MeTRiD 2018, arXiv:1806.09330. arXiv admin note: text

Dynamic state reconciliation and model-based fault detection for chemical processes
In this paper, we present a method for the fault detection based on the residual generation. The main idea is to reconstruct the outputs of the system from the measurements using the extended Kalman filter. The estimations are compared to the values of the reference model and so, deviations are interpreted as possible faults. The reference model is simulated by the dynamic hybrid simulator, PrODHyS. The use of this method is illustrated through an application in the field of chemical processe
A Survey on Service Composition Middleware in Pervasive Environments
The development of pervasive computing has put the light on a challenging problem: how to dynamically compose services in heterogeneous and highly changing environments? We propose a survey that defines the service composition as a sequence of four steps: the translation, the generation, the evaluation, and finally the execution. With this powerful and simple model we describe the major service composition middleware. Then, a classification of these service composition middleware according to pervasive requirements - interoperability, discoverability, adaptability, context awareness, QoS management, security, spontaneous management, and autonomous management - is given. The classification highlights what has been done and what remains to do to develop the service composition in pervasive environments
