LUCAS – Center for Applied Software Research LUCAS är en samordning av programvaruinriktad verksamhet vid institutionerna för: • Datavetenskap • Telekommunikationssystem • Reglerteknik LUCAS har stöd från Vinnova med målsättningen att bli ett kompetenscentrum.
Tematiska områden Följande tre områden täcks av centrat: • Software Engineering Environments • Methods in Software Engineering • Real-Time System Software
Medlemsföretag • Guld • Ericsson Mobile Platforms • Sony Ericsson Mobile • ABB Automation Products • Silver • Telelogic, Q-Labs, Ericsson Microwave • Brons • TAC, ABB Robotics, IAR, connectBlue, BlueCell, Axis, C-Technology • Diskussion: Softlab, PDC (DK), ...
LUCAS aktiviteter • Forskningsprojekten • LUCAS dagarna • LUCAS klustermöten • Industriell automation • XP • Nätverk & Bluetooth • Testning, verifiering, validering • Kurser, seminarier
Automation Systems: Languages & Implementation • Goal/idea: • Use modern OO ideas in the design and implementation of control and automation systems • Domain-specific languages, co-design of control application and run-time environment, co-simulation tools • Progress: • ABB project within LUCAS • Aspect-oriented language development systems (Applab, JastAdd) • Complementary work at Automatic Control • Actors: • VINNOVA, SSF, ABB ATP, ABB Robotics, Sigma Exallon, TAC(?) • Karl-Erik Årzén, Klas Nilsson, Görel Hedin, Torbjörn Ekman, Anton Cervin, Dan Henriksson
Feedback and QoS in Embedded Systems • Goal/idea: • Study the possibility to use feedback principles in the modeling, analysis, and design of embedded systems as a way of handling the uncertainties in large and complex real-time systems • Study the possibility to use quality-of-service principles in feedback control systems • Progress: • Joint project between CS and AC funded by SSF/ARTES • FLEXCON application in submission to SSF/IT (passed first evaluation) • Actors: • VINNOVA, SSF, ABB ATP, ABB Robotics, Sigma Exallon, TAC(?) • Karl-Erik Årzén, Klas Nilsson, Anton Cervin, Sven Gestegård Robertz, Dan Henriksson
Java for Embedded Systems • Goal/idea: • Enable the use of OO in embedded and control systems • Progress: • Virtual machine, compiler, RT-system design: GC, scheduling, kernel • Experiments and prototyping on several plattforms • Product development • Actors: • Vinnova, ABB, BlueCell & TAC, Softlab(?), Ericsson(?), Telelogic (?), C-Technologies(?), IAR(!) • Boris Magnusson, Roger Henriksson, Klas Nilsson, Anders Ive, Anders Nilsson, Anders Blomdell
Networked Control Systems • Goal/idea: • flexibility through new techniques: dynamic linking, radio communication (Bluetooth). • Progress: • New project with Vinnova support • Relations to Java and COOP and control projects • Actors: • Vinnova, ABB AP(?), BlueCell(?), TAC(?) • Boris Magnusson, Karl-Erik Årzén, Klas Nilsson, Anders Nilsson, Bo Lincoln
System & Software Architectures in Robotics • Goal/idea: • Study system & software architectures that allow flexibility in industrial robotics systems • Vision, force control, collaboration, distributed control • Progress: • Robotics lab at AC important base resource for LUCAS • Long time collaboration with ABB Robotics • Actors: • VINNOVA, ABB Robotics, • Klas Nilsson, Anders Robertsson, Mattias Haage, Rolf Johansson, Anders Blomdell, Daniel Einarson
Integrated Control & Scheduling • SSF / ARTES • Teleca och DDA Consulting som industriella noder • Anton Cervin och Sven Gestegård
Automation • Important area for Swedish and local industry • Area with long tradition • Currently in a state of transition • Several instantiations: • industrial, building, automotive, … • Wide range • from enterprise-wide systems (Industrial IT) to tiny embedded controllers
Automation • Programmable systems • system level (configuration, compilation, run-time system, …) • application level (user programming) • Domain-specific languages • graphical • easy to use but not constraining • animation & visualization • standards (e.g. IEC 1131-3, S88, S95,…)
Automation • Real-time requirements • periodic execution • determinism • support for concurrency • Distributed execution • Safety-Critical • verification (formal or practical) important • hybrid systems (plant + controller)
Automation • Small market • COTS hardware and software • Efficient development processes and reuse • Modern software techniques • concurrent object-oriented languages (Java, C#) • Interesting tradeoffs • flexibility and openness vs safety and performance
