Lab-STICC: Power Consumption Modelling with AADL (pdf, 4.5 mb)

Dominique Blouin, Skander Turki, Eric Senn, Saâdia Dhouib

This presentation points to a need for component libraries for power consumption modeling; AADL features component libraries. It then illustrates power consumption AADL modeling. The presentation concludes that AADL is suitable for power estimation modeling.

Current JAXA AADL Activity (pdf, 311 kb)

Masa Katahira and Naoki Ishihama

This presentation is an update on the introduction and initial uses of AADL in the Japanese Space Agency. This activity includes training in AADL and OSATE and a 3-month trial project which concluded in March 2009. This introduction has resulted in some suggestions for AADL and OSATE, namely support for an OSATE diagram editor, support for the graphical editor as a system mode, and development of a verification tool. A JAXA AADL activity roadmap has been developed.
