This work presents a compositional approach for schedulability analysis of Distributed Integrated Modular Avionics (DIMA) systems that consist of spatially distributed ARINC-653 modules connected by a unified AFDX network. We model a DIMA system as a set of stopwatch automata in UPPAAL to verify its schedulability by model checking. However, direct model checking is infeasible due to the large state space. Therefore, we introduce the compositional analysis that checks each partition including…

Compositional Schedulability Analysis of An Avionics System Using UPPAAL
TLDR
A compositional framework is reconfigurable in which the hierarchical structure, the scheduling policies, the concrete task behavior and the shared resources can all be reconfigured and used to analyze the schedulability of a real-time avionics system.
A Compositional Scheduling Framework for Digital Avionics Systems
TLDR
This work develops compositional techniques for automated scheduling of partitions in a distributed real-time avionics system and proposes a principled approach for scheduling ARINC-653 partitions that should facilitate system integration.
Component-based analysis of hierarchical scheduling using linear hybrid automata
TLDR
This paper models a dynamic server algorithm and the tasks contained within, abstracting away the rest of the system, thus enabling component-based scheduling analysis and compares the results of the model against classical schedulability analysis techniques, showing that it performs better than analytic methods in terms of resource utilisation.
Development of a Schedulability Analysis Framework Based on pTPN and UPPAAL with Stopwatches
TLDR
An original schedulability framework which is based on preemptive Time Petri Nets (pTPNs) and UPPAAL with stopwatches (UPPAALSW) is proposed which enables a real-time tasking set to be uniformly formalized using pTPNs and then analyzed through model checking using UPPAalSW in the presence of a reusable library of template processes.
A Formal Approach to Design and Verification of Two-Level Hierarchical Scheduling Systems
TLDR
The methodology leverages the theory of preemptive Time Petri Nets (pTPNs) to support exact schedulability analysis, to guide the implementation on a Real-Time Operating System (RTOS), and to drive functional conformance testing of the real-time code.

Compositional Verification for Hierarchical Scheduling of Real-Time Systems

This work proposes a compositional approach to formal specification and schedulability analysis of real-time applications running under a Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) global scheduler and preemptive Fixed Priority (FP) local schedulers, according to the ARINC-653 standard.
Model checking and modular verification
TLDR
A framework for compositional verification of finite-state processes based on a subset of the logic CTL for which satisfaction is preserved under composition and a preorder on structures which captures the relation between a component and a system containing the component is described.

Scaling up Uppaal Automatic Verification of Real-Time Systems Using Compositionality and Abstraction
TLDR
A notion of timed ready simulation is identified which is a sound condition for preservation of safety properties between real-time systems, and in addition is a precongruence with respect to parallel composition, which supports both abstraction and compositionality.
