Abstract

We introduce an open meta-model that will be easily enriched to cover new real-time scheduling models and techniques. On the one hand, it will be possible to connect several independent schedulability analysis tools, following closely the advances in real-time scheduling theory, dealing with a temporal model that will be covered by our metamodel. On the other hand, we will use model transformation techniques in order to extract information from different design methodologies. This extraction can be done at different stages of the design (early for sensitivity analysis, at a later stage for temporal validation) to create a temporal model of the designed system, without the designer to be an expert in scheduling theory. We are working currently on the meta-model phase. The objective is to cover enough concepts to be able to represent a big part of the real-time scheduling models and problems, without introducing too much complexity. This paper uses the UML profile mechanism to describe such a meta-model.
