Study on the performance modeling approach for automotive embedded control software

Abstract

With the ever increasing complexity of automotive E/E (Electrical and Electronic) systems, model-based development techniques have been more and more widely used in the current development process of automotive embedded control software. Regarding the safety-critical automotive control systems with hard real-time characteristics, modeling timing and resource related performance and carrying out timing analysis for the control software at an early design stage play a crucial role to guarantee the quality of software as well as improve the cost-efficiency. © 2013 Springer-Verlag.
