Modelisar FMU Import. The Modelisar project [5] has defined Function Mockup Units to exchange and integrate simulation blocks from different modeling tools.
Modelisar FMU Import. Modelisar is an ITEA2 project with the main objectives to improve significantly the design of systems and of embedded software in vehicles. The main output of the project is a specification of an open standardized interface to be used between simulation environments to exchange models and for co-simulation. A Function Mockup Unit (FMU) contains an executable and a Function Mockup Interface (FMI). Tools can use the Function Mockup Interface to properly execute several Function Mockup Units, and thus simulate several components without having access to its internal specification. Providing the capability to exchange EAST-ADL models with the FMI format pave the road for model exchange and simulation of EAST-ADL models. Key points for the analysis The FMU import represents model synthesis from external tools, as it makes it possible to reuse the structure defined elsewhere, and to export to external formats. With additional tool support, it would also be possible to synthesize complete FMUs out of an EAST-ADL model. It would mean that components or subsystems of an EAST-ADL model could be simulated based on the MODELISAR concepts. It would require references to executable components from within the EAST-ADL model. At this point, however, the benefit is the consistent definition of component interface between an external component in Modelisar FMU and its EAST-ADL model. Analysis strategies ITEM Evaluation Steps Evaluation of the capability to import MODELISAR FMI into an EAST-ADL model Define an Modelisar Function Mockup Interface specification file for a FMU. Run MODELISAR FMU import plugin Assess imported information transformed to EAST-ADL elements Analysis results Modelisar FMU import has been performed on a small example, see Figure 6.
