  • Abstract: CESAR stands for Cost-efficient methods and processes for safety relevant embedded systems and is a European funded project from ARTEMIS JOINT UNDERTAKING (JU). The three transportation domains automotive, aerospace, and rail, as well as the automation domain share the need to develop ultra-reliable embedded systems to meet societal demands for increased mobility and ensuring safety in a highly competitive global market. To maintain the European leading edge position in the transportation as well as automation market, CESAR aims to boost cost efficiency of embedded systems development and safety and certification processes by an order of magnitude. CESAR pursuits a multi-domain approach integrating large enterprises, suppliers, SME's and vendors of cross sectoral domains and cooperating with leading research organizations and innovative SME's.

PRESTO

  • Coordinator: Miltech (Greece)

  • Abstract: The PRESTO project aims at improving test-based embedded systems development and validation, while considering the constraints of industrial development processes. This project is based on the integration of test traces exploitation, along with platform models and design space exploration techniques. Such traces are obtained by execution of test patterns, during the software integration design phase, meant to validate system requirements). The expected result of the project is to establish functional and performance analysis and platform optimisation at early stage of the design development. The approach of PRESTO is to model the software/hardware allocation, by the use of modelling frameworks, such as the UML profile for model-driven development of Real Time and Embedded Systems (MARTE). The analysis tools, among them timing analysis including Worst Case Execution Time (WCET) analysis, scheduling analysis and possibly more abstract system-level timing analysis techniques will receive as inputs on the one hand information from the performance modelling of the HW/SW-platform, and on the other hand behavioural information of the software design from tests results of the integration test execution.

    The PRESTO project (ARTEMIS-2010-1-269362) is co-funded by the European Commission under the ARTEMIS Joint Undertaking Programme.

  • See also: http://timmo-2-use.org/

  • Abstract: TIMMO develops different types of timing constraints and dynamic behaviour in the supply chain of the complex development process is of crucial importance when designing distributed real-time automotive systems. TIMMO-2-USE stands for TIMing MOdel - TOols, algorithms, languages, methodology, and USE cases which summarizes the main objectives of the project, i.e., the development of novel tools, algorithms, languages, and a methodology validated by use cases.

The project provides partial funding for the postdoctoral positions of Jean-Vivien Millo and Arda Goknil.

  • Abstract: The OPENPROD project is developing an open whole-product, model-driven systems development, modelling and simulation (M&S) environment that integrates the leading open industrial software development platform Eclipse with open-source modelling and simulation tools such as OpenModelica and industrial M&S tools and applications. The project will enable a more formalised validation of production to cut time to market and ensure higher quality, using open solutions which will have a high impact, based on easy uptake and wide dissemination.
