  1. Ptolemy Project Vision Edward A. Lee Robert S. Pepper Distinguished Professor Eighth Biennial Ptolemy Miniconference April 16, 2009 Berkeley, CA, USA

  2. Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS)Where it is going CPS: Orchestrating networked computational resources with physical systems.

  3. Computer Science: Carefully abstracts the physical world System Theory: Deals directly with physical quantities Cyber Physical Systems: Computational + Physical CPS is Multidisciplinary

  4. Ptolemy Project Research • Foundations: Timed computational semantics. • Bottom up: Embedded processors (PRET). • Top down: Distributed real-time systems (PTIDES). • Holistic: Scalable model-based design.

  5. The established: Object-oriented: class name What flows through an object is sequential control data methods call return The alternative: Actor oriented: actor name What flows through an object is evolving data data (state) parameters ports Output data Input data Object Oriented vs. Actor OrientedSoftware Components Things happen to objects Actors make things happen

  6. Timed Software Semantics super-dense time concurrent actor-oriented models abstraction s S N Causal systems operating on signals are usually naturally (Scott) continuous. fixed-point semantics

  7. Results Software: Ptolemy II realizes a number of timed concurrent models of computation (MoCs) with well-founded rigorous semantics.

  9. Ptolemy Project Research • Foundations: Timed computational semantics. • Bottom up: Embedded processors (PRET). • Top down: Distributed real-time systems (PTIDES). • Holistic: Scalable model-based design.

  10. Bottom Up: Embedded Processors Precision-Timed (PRET) Machines Make temporal behavior as important as logical function. Timing precision with performance: Challenges: • Memory hierarchy (scratchpads?) • Deep pipelines (interleaving?) • ISAs with timing (deadline instructions?) • Multicore (dedicated I/O & real-time processors?) • Predictable memory management (Metronome?) • Languages with timing (discrete events? Giotto?) • Predictable concurrency (synchronous languages?) • Composable timed components (actor-oriented?) • Precision networks (TTA? Time synchronization?) See S. Edwards and E. A. Lee, "The Case for the Precision Timed (PRET) Machine," in the Wild and Crazy Ideas Track of the Design Automation Conference (DAC), June 2007.

Lee (UCB PI) • Stephen Edwards (Columbia co-PI) • Jan Rabaey (UCB co-PI) • John Wawrzynek (UCB co-PI) • Christopher Brooks (Technical staff) • Hiren Patel (postdoc) • Hugo Andrade (NI VIF) • Shanna-Shaye Forbes (UCB grad student) • Sunjun Kim (Columbia grad student) • Ben Lickly (UCB grad student) • Isaac Liu (UCB grad student)

  13. PTIDES: Programming Temporally Integrated Distributed Embedded Systems Distributed execution under DE semantics, with “model time” and “real time” bound at sensors and actuators. Output time stamps are ≤ real time Input time stamps are ≥ real time Input time stamps are ≥ real time Output time stamps are ≤ real time

  14. PTIDES Project Funding from NSF, Agilent, IBM, Toyota, and the State of California MICRO program, in cooperation with the University of Salzburg, Austria. Staffing: • Edward A. Lee (UCB PI) • Christopher Brooks (Technical staff) • Patricia Derler (Univ. Salzburg grad student) • Slobodan Matic (postdoc) • Thomas Feng (UCB grad student) • Ben Lickly (UCB grad student) • Stefan Resmerita (Univ.

  16. Hierarchical MultimodelingHierarchical compositionsof models of computation. Maintaining temporal semantics across MoCs is a main challenge.

  17. Multi-View Modeling:Distinct and separate models of the same system are constructed to model different aspects of the system. Functional model in Statecharts Verification model in SMV Deployment model in Ptolemy II Functional model in Ptolemy II This example is a test case for a collaborative project with Lockheed-Martin Reliability model in Excel

  18. “Model Engineering” Project Funding from AFRL, Army Research Office, Air Force Research Office, Bosch, Lockheed-Martin, and Thales. Staffing: • Edward A.
