A Framework for Analysis of Timing and Resource Utilization targeting Complex Embedded Systems

• A problem in common of many complex software systems embedded in industrialproducts is the absence of analyzability as formal models of the systembehavior does not exist. When performing maintenance of such systems it ishard to predict how changes will impact specific system properties related totiming and resource utilization and there is therefore a significant risk of runninginto problems with unexpected side-effects of the changes made, whichincreases development time required and costs.In this paper we present the ART Framework, a set of methods and toolsthat enable behavior impact analysis for existing industrial real-time systems.The ART Framework enables developers of complex software systems to identifyproblematic side-effects of a proposed design before vast resources havebeen invested in implementation and testing. This reduces the risk of expensiveand time-consuming problems discovered late in a development projectand also reduces the risk releasing software containing latent critical errors.
