Abstract

INTRODUCTION:: Cyber comes from Greek adjective kyberneticos (cybernetic) which means skilled in steering or governing. Already from ancient times people constructed various machines (physical systems) and their controllers (cyber systems). Cyber-physical system (CPS) is a compound system engineered through integration of cyber and physical sub-systems or components, so that it appears and operates as a single unit in relation to the external world (to other systems). With the progress of time, machines and their controllers became more and more complex. Until the end of the 19th century the controllers (cyber systems) were implemented as mechanical, hydraulic and pneumatic systems. In the 20th century they started to be gradually replaced by the electric controllers, and later by the electronic controllers. Introduction of transistors and integrated circuit technologies in the years 1950s and 1960s, correspondingly, enabled the microelectronics and information technology revolution that is progressing according to the Moore’s low till now. The revolutionary progress in computing platforms, communication, networking, sensors and actuators enabled much more effective and efficient CPS for traditional applications, and “smart”, sophisticated and affordable CPS for numerous new applications, e.g. smart communicating robots, cars, wearable and implantable medical devices, etc. Contemporary cyber-physical systems (CPS) are smart compound systems engineered through seamless integration of embedded information processing sub-systems and physical sub-systems. The modern smart collaborating CPS, that started to form the Cyber-Physical Systems of Systems (CPSoS) and Internet of Things (IoT), have important applications in virtually all economic and social segments, and their huge economic and societal impact rapidly increases. The CPS and IoT area undergoes a revolutionary development. There is however a common opinion that many more welltrained researchers and developers are needed in this rapidly developing area, as well as, more information exchange and collaboration among different projects and teams in the area. This Summer School on Cyber-Physical Systems and Internet-of-Things (CPS&IoT’2019) aims at serving the following main purposes: - advanced training of industrial and academic researchers, developers, engineers and decisionmakers; academic teachers, Ph.D. and M.Sc. students; entrepreneurs, investors, research funding agents, and policy makers; and other participants who want to learn about CPS and IoT engineering; - dissemination, exchange and discussion of advanced knowledge and project results from numerous European R&D projects in CPS and IoT; - promotion and facilitation of international contacts and collaboration among people working or interested in the CPS and IoT area. The school is open to everybody, but previous knowledge or equivalent practical experience at least at the Bachelor level in engineering (e.g. system, computer, electronic, electrical, automotive, aviation, mechanical, or industrial engineering), computer science, informatics, applied physics or similar is recommended. Industry Participation is encouraged. CPS&IoT’2019 Summer School is not only to follow courses and learn new knowledge on CPS and IoT from top professionals, but to meet people, interact and discuss with outstanding researchers, developers, academic lecturers, advanced students, and other participants, collaborate or start collaborations, and meet many talented people who may become employees of your companies as well. Distinguishing features of this advanced Summer School are that its lectures, demonstrations, and practical hands-on sessions will be given by top European specialists in particular CPS and IoT fields form industry and academia, and will deliver very fresh advanced knowledge. They are based on results from numerous currently running or recently finished European R&D projects in CPS and IoT, what gives an excellent opportunity to get acquainted with issues and challenges of CPS and IoT development; actual industrial problems, designs and case studies; and new concepts, advanced knowledge and modern design methods and tools created in the European R&D projects. CPS&IoT’2019 Summer School is collocated with ECYPS2019 – 7th EUROMICRO/IEEE Workshop on Embedded and Cyber-Physical Systems, and MECO2019 – 8th Mediterranean Conference on Embedded Computing. The Summer School participants are encouraged to submit their papers to ECYPS2019 and MECO2019: http://embeddedcomputing.me/en. The CPS&IoT’2019 Summer School Program is composed of four days of lectures, demonstrations, practical hands-on sessions, and discussions, as well as free participation in ECYPS 2019 and MECO 2019 sessions. The topics of the lectures, demonstrations, and practical hands-on sessions cover major CPS applications (focusing on modern mobile applications that require high-performance or low energy consumption, as well as, high reliability, security and safety), computing technology for modern CPS, CPS architectures, development problems and solutions, as well as, design methodologies and design tools for all CPS design phases. Detailed list of the CPS&IoT’2019 Presentations including the names of their authors and presenters is provided in the Schedule of the CPS&IoT’2019 Summer School. This Summer School is possible thanks to involvement of many outstanding researchers and developers from multiple European countries, R&D projects and teams. The Chairmen of the CPS&IoT’2019 Summer School express their thanks to all authors and presenters of the CPS&IoT’2019 presentations, as well as, to all other people who contributed to the success of the Summer School, and wish a very effective and pleasant Summer School time to all the CPS&IoT’2019 participants.

This work faces the problem of the Electronic System-Level (ESL) HW/SW co-design of dedicated electronic digital systems based on heterogeneous multi-processor architectures. In particular, the work presents a prototype SystemC-based environment that exploits a Design Space Exploration (DSE) approach able to suggest an HW/SW partitioning of the system specification and a mapping onto an automatically defined architecture. The descriptions of the reference HW/SW co-design methodology and the main design issues related to the developed DSE SW tools, supported by two reference use cases that allows to understand the role of the DSE step in the whole design flow, represent the core of the paper.

There is an ever-increasing complexity of the systems we engineer in modern society, which includes facing the convergence of the embedded world and the open world. This complexity creates increasing difficulty with providing assurance for factors including safety, security and performance. In such a context, the AQUAS project investigates the challenges arising from e.g., the inter-dependence of safety, security and performance of systems and aims at efficient solutions for the entire product life-cycle. The project builds on knowledge of partners gained in current or former EU projects and will demonstrate the newly developed methods and techniques for co-engineering across use cases spanning Aerospace, Medicine, Transport and Industrial Control.

Run-time resource allocation of heterogeneous multi-core systems is challenging with varying workloads and limited power and energy budgets. User interaction within these systems changes the performance requirements, often conflicting with concurrent applications' objective and system constraints. Current resource allocation approaches focus on optimizing fixed objective, ignoring the variation in system and applications' objective at run-time. For an efficient resource allocation, the system has to operate autonomously by formulating a hierarchy of goals. We present goal-driven autonomy (GDA) for on-chip resource allocation decisions, which allows systems to generate and prioritize goals in response to the workload and system dynamic variation. We implemented a proof-of-concept resource management framework that integrates the proposed goal management control to meet power, performance and user requirements simultaneously. Experimental results on an Exynos platform containing ARM's big.LITTLE-based heterogeneous multi-processor (HMP) show the effectiveness of GDA in efficient resource allocation in comparison with existing fixed objective policies.
Conference Paper
Heterogeneous multi-processor platforms are becoming widely diffused in the embedded system domain, mainly because of the opportunity to improve timing performance and, at the same time, to minimize energy/power consumption and costs. In using such kind of platforms, to be able to consider the trade-offs among different goals, a Design Space Exploration (DSE) is generally adopted. For this, existing DSE approaches typically rely on evolutionary algorithms to solve Multi-Objective Optimization Problems (MOOP) by minimizing a linear combination of weighted objective functions (i.e., Weighted Sum Method, WSM). The problem is then shifted towards the identification of weights able to represent desired trade-offs. In such a context, this paper focuses on DSE for heterogeneous multi-processor embedded systems and introduces an approach that, while still driven by a "decision maker", is able to self-tune weights to equalize objective functions contribution. In particular, this work presents a self-equalized WSM integrated into a genetic algorithm used to identify sub-optimal implementation alternatives in the context of an Electronic System Level HW/SW Co-Design flow.

Heterogeneous multi-core processors (HMPs) are increasingly being deployed to meet the performance/power requirements of emerging workloads, demanding adaptive and coordinated resource management techniques to control the resulting complexity of such systems. While multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) control-theory has been applied to adaptively coordinate resources for single-core processors, the coordinated management of HMPs poses significant additional challenges for controllability, robustness, and efficiency due to their large space of cross-layer configuration parameters. This paper presents for the first time a methodology to design MIMO controllers for coordinated management of HMPs with formal guarantees. Our approach addresses the challenges of: system decomposition and identification; selection of suitable sensor and actuator granularity; and appropriate system modeling to make the system identifiable as well as controllable. We illustrate the practical applicability of our approach on an ARM big.LITTLE HMP platform running Linux, and demonstrate the efficiency and robustness of our method by designing MIMO-based resource managers.
