abstract = {AUTOSAR (AUTomotive Open System ARchitecture) is an
open and standardized automotive software
architecture, developed by automobile manufacturers,
suppliers, and tool developers. Its design is a
direct consequence of the increasingly important role
played by software in vehicles. As design choices
during the software deployment phase have a large
impact on the behavior of the system, designers need
to explore various trade-offs. Examples of such
design choices are the mapping of software components
to processors, the priorities of tasks and messages,
and buffer allocation. In this paper, we evaluate the
appropriateness of DEVS, the Discrete-Event System
specification, for modeling and subsequent
performance evaluation of AUTOSAR-based systems.
Moreover, a DEVS simulation model is constructed for
AUTOSAR-based electronic control units connected by a
communication bus. To aid developers in evaluating a
deployment solution, the simulation model is extended
with co-simulation with a plant and environment
model, evaluation at different levels of detail, and
fault injection. Finally, we examine how the
simulation model supports the relationship between
the supplier and the original equipment manufacturer
in the automotive industry. We demonstrate and
validate our work by means of a power window case
study.},
