Autonomous defence systems are typically characterised by hard constraints on space, weight and power. These constraints have a strong impact on the non-functional properties, and performance, of the final system. System execution modelling tools permit early prediction of the performance of model driven systems, however the focus to date has been on understanding the performance of a model rather than determining if it meets performance requirements, and subsequently carrying out analysis to reveal the causes of any requirement violations. In this paper, we propose an integrated approach to performance prediction of model-driven distributed real time embedded defence systems. Our architectural prototyping system supports a scenario-driven experimental platform for evaluating model suitability within a set of deployment and real-time performance constraints. We present an overview of our performance prediction system, demonstrating the integration of modelling, execution and visualisation, and discuss a case study to illustrate our approach. |
