Since the construction of the first embedded system in the 1960s, embedded systems have continued to spread. They provide a continually increasing number of services and are part of our daily life. The development of these systems is a difficult problem which does not yet have a global solution. Another difficulty is that systems are plunged into the real world, which is not discrete (as is generally understood in computing), but has a richness of behaviors which sometimes hinders the formulation of simplifying assumptions due to their generally autonomous nature and they must face possibly unforeseen situations (incidents, for example), or even situations that lie outside the initial design assumptions.Embedded Systems presents the state of the art of the development of embedded systems and, in particular, concentrates on the modeling and analysis of these systems by looking at model-driven engineering, (MDE2): SysML, UML/MARTE and AADL. A case study (based on a pacemaker) is presented which enables the reader to observe how the different aspects of a system are addressed using the different approaches. All three systems are important in that they provide the reader with a global view of their possibilities and demonstrate the contributions of each approach in the different stages of the software lifecycle. Chapters dedicated to analyzing the specification and code generation are also presented.

Foreword

I am pleased to be asked to write this preface for two reasons. One was to provide fair evidence in favor of pre-existing prejudices. The other was to see the use of the PACEMAKER System Specification as a common subject for the application of SysML, MARTE, and AADL.

Previously only familiar with SysML and MARTE through presentation and tutorial, I expanded and sharpened my understanding of their adaptability to each users (companys) needs. From UML, SysML and MARTE come notations that neither prescribe nor proscribe design methods or tools. The power of defining ones own semantics comes at the cost of defining ones own semantics.

In the domain of embedded electronic control systems using software, AADL reigns supreme. I serve on SAE International AS-2C standard subcommittee that issues the AADL standard and its annex documents, so please understand my enthusiasm in the context of a true believer. AADL is not suitable for modeling an entire aircraft, just its avionics. Where SysML/MARTE hands-off to AADL for electronics and software architecture should be at the edge of the electronics (sensors, actuators, displays). Lowest-level SysML/MARTE components trace to top-level AADL components.

Tracing between SysML and AADL might be done using RDALTE which links requirements to architecture. Currently RDALTE links to AADL, using OSATE2, but it is designed to be architecture agnostic. To easily add linking to SysML/MARTE models is a feature of RDALTE.

More personally, the PACEMAKER System Specification used in this book and many published papers was provided by Boston Scientific for use in research and education as a public service. Its origin was serendipitous.

While attending Formal Methods 2006 held at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, I happened to catch a ride with Jim Woodcock. Jim originated the Verification Grand Challenge problem of a Mondex electronic wallet used as the subject of several papers at the conference. Mondex was a clean, simple problem for which a specification had been written in Z. Given the dearth of conference attendees from industry Jim pounced upon me exhorting a real-world problem, complex enough to challenge formal methodologies, but not so large as to preclude use by small, academic teams. I told him Id try to find such a problem.

Rooting around, I found a concise, system specification of a pacemaker designed in the 1990s that was company confidential. However, the companys confidentiality policy made no mention of publicly releasing confidential documents akin to declassification of secrets. Therefore approval of public release would need to come from upper management. With the assistance of many people in Boston Scientifics Formal Methods Group, the document was converted to LaTeX, stripped of proprietary content and mentions of Boston Scientific products, and repeatedly reviewed. The Software Quality Research Laboratory at McMaster University agreed to host the document and its FAQ. Finally, all approvals were obtained, and the document released, six months after that fateful car ride with Jim.

This book succinctly explains three popular languages used to model systems, each complex subjects themselves, in remarkably few pages. Those that want to understand fundamental concepts and differences of SysML, MARTE, and AADL will find this books use of a common subject helpful.

Foreword

In the introduction to the report of the mission Generic embedded software components, which was entrusted to me in 2010 by the French Minister for Industry, the Secretary of State for Forward Planning and Development of the Digital Economy, and the General Commissioner for Future Investments, there is a reminder that:

The technologies of embedded systems, embedded software, and microelectronics have the capacity to transform all the objects of the physical world from the smallest to the largest, from the most simple to the most complex into digital, intelligent, autonomous and communicative devices. The emergence of the Web of Objects, the connection between the world of the Web and the world of embedded systems, considerably amplifies this revolution.

Indeed, the general deployment of embedded systems significantly changes our environment, has brought about numerous innovations in products and uses, and impacts all industrial activities and services.

Mastering the engineering of embedded systems is, therefore, a key element in industrial competitiveness. However, achieving this mastery is still a complex and costly process because of the breadth of the technological field, the diversity and complexity of requirements and solutions. This is illustrated well by the different views of this type of engineering proposed by the embedded systems common technical baseline or CTB:

The system view describes the actual embedded system, that is its architecture, and all its hardware and software components (processing units, bus and operating system (OS) networks, middleware, application software).

The design tools view shows all the design tools (modeling, simulation) used.

The lifecycle view of the product describes the activities and where they are involved in the design, development and implementation of an embedded system.

Figure F.1.System views (left), lifecycle (center) and design tools (right)

Examination of these different views shows the importance of modeling - photo 4

Examination of these different views shows the importance of modeling activities in embedded systems engineering. Therefore, with each level and each element in the system view architecture, processors, bus and networks, software, etc. correspond, as shown in the lifecycle and design tools of the product, the models and modeling tools that assist and validate the different stages of development.
