AMALTHEA4public

ProjectIntroduction

AMALTHEA4public is an open source tool platform for engineering embedded multi- and many-core software systems. The platform enables the creation and management of complex tool chains including simulation and validation. As an open platform, it supports interoperability and extensibility and unifies data exchange in cross-organizationalprojects.


Benefits of Open SourceGoal for AMALTHEA4public

§ De-facto standard for- System description (SW, HW, Constraints)- Interface to Timing Simulation/Analysis- Exchange

§ Combination of different tools is simplified

§ Open common model allows- Prototyping- Custom Tooling

OpenSourcecompletesOpenStandardswhenitcomestostandardizeatechnicalsolution.


Technical AspectsChallenges of Multi- and Many-Core

§ Typical Paradigm of Single-Core Software- Blackboard Architecture: Memory access is for “free”- Integration challenge: scheduling of computation

§ Paradigm Change for Multi-/Many-Core- Cross-Core Communication is expensive- Synchronization leads to high overheads- Memory location matters- Integration challenge: scheduling of computation and communication

§ Sophisticated new tooling required for task distribution, memory location optimization and performance analysis

WP 7 Overview

§ Bring AMALTHEA4public platform to public as open source- Creation of the Open Source project at the beginning of the

AMALTHEA4public project

§ Raise maturity of AMALTHEA4public to enable Long Term Support- Reach a 1.0 version (according to the Eclipse Development

Process) by the end of the ITEA2 project

§ Grow the community of users and developers§ Integrate into the Eclipse release train


WP7 OverviewEclipse Business Friendly Open Source

§ Identify precisely what your competitive differentiators are for your customers

§ Focus all possible energies there, and acquire everything else from OSS, or help build it in OSS

Build this in and with open source,even if that means working withyour direct competitors.Platform

WP 7 – T7.1: Publish the Amalthea platform in open source

§ Follow the well-established Eclipse Development Process- Described in the Eclipse Process Handbook

§ Project creation phase


WP 7 – T7.1: Publish the Amaltheaplatform in open source

Creation of the APP4MC project§ Proposal has been made public, proposed project name is APP4MC

- Was available for public review for 1 month § Trademark review for APP4MC has been successfully conducted§ APP4MC has passed the creation review(Aug 12, 2015)§ APP4MC has been provisioned

- Git repositories- Bugtracker- Public collaboration spaces (mailing list, forum, wiki)

§ Initial committers- Dortmund University, ITEMIS, Eclipse Foundation, University of

Paderborn, Bosch, Timing Architects, OTH Regensburg, OFFIS§ Project mentors help the project reach full speed in the Eclipse

ecosystem: Bernd Kolb (Itemis), Cedric Brun(Obeo)


WP 7 – T7.3: Grow community of users and developers

§ Workshops conducted for proposed project committers- Development process, legal process, development tools
