Temporal Bounds for TTA : Validation

Abstract

Abstract:In the context of real-time fault-tolerant architecture, as TTA (Time-Triggered Architecture), the temporal validation of the system behavior is very important. Indeed, the fault-tolerant mechanism execution must respects several temporal constraints. To validate the mechanism behaviors, and to give their maximum execution time (temporal bound), we propose here a temporal validation methodology for TTA. This methodology uses the UPPAAL tool, based on the timed automata and the model-checking analysis. This methodology allows us to extract the temporal bounds of the TTA services.
