Abstract

Systems integration is a major challenge in many industries. Systematic analysis of the complex integration effects, especially with respect to timing and performance, significantly improves the design process, enables optimizations, and increases the quality and profit of a product. And it helps to improve supply-chain communications. This paper surveys a set of interesting experiments we have conducted on a real-world automotive communication network using our new SymTA/S system-level schedulability analysis technology. We demonstrate that, and how, analysis technology helps answering key integration questions, thereby carefully respecting the established business models.
