Spreading Excellence IST-004527 ARTIST2 NoE Year 3 JPASE: Joint Programme of Activities for D3-Mgt-Y3 Spreading Excellence IST-004527 ARTIST2 Network of Excellence on Embedded Systems Design Spreading Excellence Artist2 Technical Coordinator: Bruno Bouyssounouse (Verimag) with inputs from all NoE participants The visibility of the ARTIST2 research effort in embedded systems design is worldwide. This is progressively creating a European embedded systems design community, and spreading the “artist culture” in all major research institutions. To ensure that the next generation of researchers will continue in this direction we, as a consortium, devote a great deal of effort to Spreading Excellence, in both academic and industrial circles. Furthermore, through our links with both core and affiliated partners, we are actively setting up permanents links between industry and public research, leveraging on existing partner collaborations with major industrial players in the area. This document shows that ARTIST2 has a strategic impact on the integration of multiple academic research communities, which are necessary to establish the new area of embedded systems design. 1 / 126 IST-004527 ARTIST2 NoE Year 3 JPASE: Joint Programme of Activities for D3-Mgt-Y3 Spreading Excellence Table of Contents 1.

  • Towards a Time Model for Circus
    Towards a Time Model for Circus Adnan Sherif and He Jifeng ∗ The United Nations University, International Institute for Software Technology, Casa Silva Mendes, Est. do Engenheiro Trigo No. 4, P.O Box 3058, Macau Tel.:+853 - 712.930, Fax: +853 - 712.940 [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. In this work we propose a time model for Circus. The model is an extension to the model proposed by the unifying theories of pro- gramming and used by Circus. We take a subset of Circus and study its semantics in the new model. We create an abstraction function that maps the timed model to the original model. The main objective of this mapping is to create a relation between the two models. This allows the exploration of some properties of the timed semantics in the untimed model. We study a toy example to illustrate the use of this mapping. 1 Introduction Real time systems have always been a strong candidate for formal develop- ment methods. This fact rises due to the complexity and, usually, critical nature of these systems. The development of formal specification languages, and the adaptation of existing languages with time expressing capacity, was and still is a challenging task. Many languages such as DC [1], and RTL [4] are based on temporal logic and are powerful for expressing timed functionalities. Timed CSP [8] is an extension to the well known CSP [9]. Reed and Roscoe have developed several semantic models for the language [8]. Lately the combination of different languages and techniques have been adapted to obtain formalisms that can be used in a wider range of applications.

  • Completeness of Higher-Order Duration Calculus *
    Completeness of Higher-Order Duration Calculus Zhan Naijun Lab. of Computer Science and Techonology, Institute of Software, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, 100080, P.R. China [email protected] Abstract. In order to describe the real-time behaviour of programs in terms of Duration Calculus (DC), proposed by Zhou Chaochen, C.A.R. Hoare and A.P. Ravn in [3], which can specify real-time requirements of computing systems, quantifications over program variables are inevitable, e.g. to describe local variable declaration, to declare internal channel and so on. So a higher-order duration calculus (HDC) is established in [2]. This paper proves completeness of HDC on abstract domains by encod- ing HDC into a complete first-order two-sorted interval temporal logic (IL2 ). This idea is hinted by [9]. All results shown in this paper are done under the assumption that all program variables have finite variability. Keywords: duration calculus higher-order logic interval temporal logic completeness 1 Introduction In order to describe the real-time behaviour of programs in terms of DC, quan- tifications over program variables are inevitable, e.g. to describe local variable declaration and so on. So a higher-order duration calculus is established in [2]. In [2], a real-time semantics of local variables has been demonstrated, and some real-time properties of programs have been derived using HDC. In order to specify the behaviour of real-time programs, program variables Vi,i≥ 0 are introduced into HDC. Predicates of program variables, constants, and global variables, such as (V<3) and (V = x), are taken as states.

  • New Results and Trends in Formal Techniques & Tools for the Development of Software for Transportation Systems — a Review1
    NEW RESULTS AND TRENDS IN FORMAL TECHNIQUES & TOOLS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF SOFTWARE FOR TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS — A REVIEW1 Dines Bjørner Computer Science and Engineering, Informatics and Mathematical Modelling Technical University of Denmark, DK–2800 Kgs.Lyngby, Denmark E–Mail: [email protected], URL: www.imm.dtu.dk/˜db Abstract: We characterise what is meant by a metod in the context of software devel- opment. Then what is meant by a formal technique. We refute the possibility of formal methods, but express the desirability of formal techniques. Some such techniques are briefly surveyed. We will outline what has been done recently and what is currently being done using formal techniques in the area predominantly of railway systems. Problems are out- lined, as are avenues for future research. Being an invited survey, the paper features an extensive, albeit far from complete, literature reference list of almost 180 entries, taking up half the paper size ! There are no examples of formal techniques being actually shown in this paper — but there should be at least three papers (Pˇeniˇcka et al., 2003; Strupchanska et al., 2003; Haxthausen and Peleska, 2003b) in these proceedings which illustrate such techniques as are the subject of the current review.

  • Model Checking Linear Duration Invariants of Networks of Automata ⋆
    Model Checking Linear Duration Invariants of Networks of Automata ⋆ Miaomiao Zhang1, Zhiming Liu2, and Naijun Zhan3 1 School of Software Engineering, Tongji University, Shanghai, China [email protected] 2 International Institute of Software Technology, United Nations University, Macau, China [email protected] 3 Lab. of Computer Science, Institute of Software, CAS, Beijing, China [email protected] Abstract. Linear duration invariants (LDIs) are important safety properties of real-time systems. In this paper, we reduce the problem of verification of a net- work of timed automata against an LDI to an equivalent problem of model check- ing whether a failure state is never reached. Our approach is first to transform each component automaton Ai of the network A to an automaton Gi. The transforma- tion helps us to record entry and exit to critical locations that appear in the LDI. We then introduce an auxiliary checker automaton S and define a failure state to verify the LDI on a given interval. Since a model checker checks exhaustively, a failure of the checker automaton to find the failure state will prove that the LDI holds. 1 Introduction The invariants constructed from linear inequalities of integrated durations of system states are important properties of real-time systems. For example, in a container un- loading system, the required property has the form “for any observation interval that is longer than 60 seconds, the idle time for a device is at most one twentieth of the time”. This kind of properties are often specified by linear duration invariants (LDIs) [13] of the following form: A ≤ ℓ ≤ B ⇒ X csRs ≤ M (1) s∈S where Rs is the duration of a state s, A, B, cs and M are real numbers.

This paper presents a theory of testing that integrates into Hoare and He’s Unifying Theory of Programming (UTP). We give test cases a denotational semantics by viewing them as specification predicates. This reformulation of test cases allows for relating test cases via refinement to specifications and programs. Having such a refinement order that integrates test cases, we develop a testing theory for fault-based testing.
