In 2015, ECSEL Joint Undertaking will open its second Call. ARTEMIS Industry Association (the association for actors in Embedded & Cyber-Physical Systems within Europe) organized the ARTEMIS Brokerage Event 2015 in Amsterdam the 21 & 22 of January to help with the drafting of project proposals and finding the right consortium partners. About 250 participants from all over Europe attended this event.
What is the ARTEMIS Brokerage Event?
It is an event that provides the opportunity to meet consortium partners and draft project proposals with the starting consortia. It also provides an important indication for Public Authorities to sense the field of interest in advance. Furthermore, it informs on the Draft Multi-Annual Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda 2015 (MASRIA), which is currently under preparation by the three industry associations in ECSEL.
Participation of Mondragon Unibertsitatea
Several researchers of the embedded system research group of Mondragon Unibertsitatea have participated actively in the ARTEMIS Brokerage Event and made interesting contacts for being part of the future ECSEL projects in Embedded & Cyber-Physical Systems topics.
Leire Etxeberria from the Software Engineering and Web Engineering research team of the embedded system research group presented one project idea in order to find appropriate partners for the consortium.
The presented Project idea is “Explore: Design and simulation tool integration for design space exploration”.
The project idea is about integrating design and simulation tools using OSLC for allowing design space exploration during the design of embedded systems. It will consist on:
- Integration of software and hardware design tools tracing design alternatives.
- Model alternative design decisions
- Based on OSLC (Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration). Extend OSLC for managing alternatives
- Integrate simulation tools and build a co-simulation infrastructure based on FMU (Functional Mock-up Units) to simulate alternative designs
- Based on FMI (Functional Mock-up Interface)
- Develop a method for design space exploration and provide tool support for design space exploration: evaluate design alternatives and simulation results of potential solutions
- Using PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) tools and OSLC
- Demonstrate in industrial case studies the effectiveness of the methods and infrastructure
