Combined approach to system level performance analysis of embedded systems

Compositional approaches to system-level performance analysis have shown great flexibility and scalability in the design of heterogeneous systems. These approaches often assume certain system architectures and application domains, and are thus tailored to give tight analysis results for specific systems. We consider two different compositional analysis methods. Both methods have their particular strengths for different architectures and applications. In this paper, we aim to enhance the analysis capabilities for these techniques. A method for event model conversion allows us a seamless integration of the two methods. Finally, we present a detailed case study to show the applicability and benefits of the enhanced performance analysis technique.
