Abstract

Packet switched networks are widely used for interconnect-
ing distributed computing platforms. RapidIO (Rapid Input/Output) is an industry standard for packet switched networks to interconnect multiple processor boards. Key performance metrics for these platforms include average-case and worst-case packet transfer latencies. We focus
on verifying such quantitative properties for a RapidIO based multi-processor platform that executes a motion control application. A performance model is available in the Parallel Object-Oriented Specication Language (POOSL) that allows for simulation based estimation results.
It is however required to determine the exact worst-case latency as the application is time-critical. A model checking approach has been proposed in our previous work which transforms the POOSL model into an UPPAAL model. However, such an approach only works for a fairly small
system. We extend the transformation approach with various heuristics to reduce the underlying state space, thereby providing an eective approximation approach that scales to industrial problems of a reasonable complexity.
