In this thesis, we address the design space exploration of cyber-physical system architectures to select correct-by-construction configuration and interconnection of system components taken from pre-defined libraries. We formulate the exploration problem as a mapping problem and use optimization to solve it by searching for a minimum cost architecture that meets system requirements. Using a graph-based representation of a system architecture, we define a set of generic mixed integer linear constraints over graph vertices, edges and paths, and use these constraints to instantiate a variety of design requirements (e.g., interconnection, flow, workload, timing, reliability, routing). We implement a comprehensive toolbox that supports all steps of the proposed methodology. It provides a pattern-based formal language to facilitate requirements specification and a set of scalable algorithms for encoding and solving exploration problems. We prove our concepts on a set of case studies for different cyber-physical system domains, such as electrical power distribution networks, reconfigurable industrial production lines and wireless sensor networks.

Abstract

In this thesis, we address the design space exploration of cyber-physical system architectures to select correct-by-construction configuration and interconnection of system components taken from pre-defined libraries. We formulate the exploration problem as a mapping problem and use optimization to solve it by searching for a minimum cost architecture that meets system requirements. Using a graph-based representation of a system architecture, we define a set of generic mixed integer linear constraints over graph vertices, edges and paths, and use these constraints to instantiate a variety of design requirements (e.g., interconnection, flow, workload, timing, reliability, routing). We implement a comprehensive toolbox that supports all steps of the proposed methodology. It provides a pattern-based formal language to facilitate requirements specification and a set of scalable algorithms for encoding and solving exploration problems. We prove our concepts on a set of case studies for different cyber-physical system domains, such as electrical power distribution networks, reconfigurable industrial production lines and wireless sensor networks.
