Informatik-Kolloquium: Modeling and Simulating Software Architectures – The Palladio Approach

Donnerstag, 18.05.2017, 14.30 Uhr

Ort:   2359|0.09, Ahornstr. 55

Referent: Dr. rer. nat. Robert Heinrich, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany

Abstract:

Too often, software designers lack an understanding of the effect of design decisions on such quality attributes as performance and reliability. This necessitates costly trial-and-error testing cycles, delaying or complicating rollout. Quantitative architecture simulation approaches to software design enable software engineers to model quality of service in early design stages. This talk presents the first simulator for software architectures, the Palladio approach. Key concepts of the Palladio approach are a domain-specific modeling language for software architecture quality and the corresponding development process. Robert Heinrich describes how quality information can be used to calibrate architecture models from which detailed simulation models are automatically derived for quality predictions to systematically answer questions about scalability, hardware resources, and efficiency.
