  1. 1. Satisfying Non-Functional Requirements in Model-Driven Development of Real-Time Embedded Systems

    Author : Mehrdad Saadatmand; Mikael Sjödin; Antonio Cicchetti; Radu Dobrin; Paul Pop; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; non-functional requirements; model-driven development; real-time; embedded systems; Computer Science; datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Design of real-time embedded systems is a complex and challenging task. Part of this complexity originates from their limited resources which incurs handling a big range of Non-Functional Requirements (NFRs). Therefore, satisfaction of NFRs plays an important role in the correctness of the design of these systems. READ MORE

  2. 2. Preservation of Extra-Functional Properties in Embedded Systems Development

    Author : Mehrdad Saadatmand; Mikael Sjödin; Antonio Cicchetti; Vittorio Cortellessa; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Software Engineering; Embedded Systems; Non-Functional Requirements; Extra-Functional Properties; Model-Driven Development; Trade-off analysis; Computer Science; datavetenskap;

    Abstract : The interaction of embedded systems with their environments and their resource limitations make it important to take into account properties such as timing, security, and resource consumption in designing such systems. These so-called Extra-Functional Properties (EFPs) capture and describe the quality and characteristics of a system, and they need to be taken into account from early phases of development and throughout the system's lifecycle.

  3. 3. Tool Integration and Safety : A Foundation for Analysing the Impact of Tool Integrationon Non-functional Properties

    Author : Fredrik Asplund; Martin Törngren; Jad El-khoury; Jakob Axelsson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tool Integration; Integrated Development Environments; Embedded Systems; Safety Standards; Certification; Qualification; Systems Thinking; System Safety; STAMP; STPA;

    Abstract : The increasing complexity of embedded systems development is becoming difficult to handle with development environments based on disjoint engineering tools. Support for interactions between various engineering tools, especially through automated means, has therefore received an increased amount of attention during the last few years. READ MORE

  4. 4. A Functional Language-Based Approach to Low-Level Hardware Design

    Author : Emil Axelsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; non-functional properties; design exploration; interconnect; functional programming; wire-aware circuit generators; electronic design automation EDA ;

    Abstract : The semiconductor industry is facing increasing problems with designing complex circuits with tight constraints on area, performance and power consumption. Worse still, these circuits must be designed and verified very quickly. READ MORE

  5. 5. Utilizing Continuous Integration environments for evaluation of software quality attributes

    Author : Liang Yu; Emil Alégroth; Panagiota Chatzipetrou; Jennifer Horkoff; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quality attributes; Quality metrics; Non-functional requirement; Continuous integration; Empirical software engineering; Programvaruteknik; Software Engineering;

    Abstract : Software quality attributes are properties that reflect the quality of a software system, and Non-functional requirements (NFRs) are the specifications that define how a software system should perform to reach a desired level of goals of the quality attributes.The evaluation of quality attributes is important to show the effectiveness of a system in meeting customers' NFRs.
