ETDs

This collection includes most of the ASU Theses and Dissertations from 2011 to present. ASU Theses and Dissertations are available in downloadable PDF format; however, a small percentage of items are under embargo. Information about the dissertations/theses includes degree information, committee members, an abstract, supporting data or media.

In addition to the electronic theses found in the ASU Digital Repository, ASU Theses and Dissertations can be found in the ASU Library Catalog.

Dissertations and Theses granted by Arizona State University are archived and made available through a joint effort of the ASU Graduate College and the ASU Libraries.

Co-simulation of Cyber-Physical Systems Using DEVS and Functional Mockup Units

Description
Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are becoming increasingly prevalent around the world. Co-simulation of cyber and physical components has shown to be an effective way towards the development of time-sensitive and reliable CPS.

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are becoming increasingly prevalent around the world. Co-simulation of cyber and physical components has shown to be an effective way towards the development of time-sensitive and reliable CPS. Correctly combining continuous models with discrete models for co-simulation can often be challenging. In this thesis, the Functional Markup Interface (FMI) is used to develop an adapter called DEVS-FMI for the DEVS-Suite simulator. The adapter, implemented using JavaFMI 2.0, allows any Functional Mock-Up Unit (FMU) to be co-simulated with a Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS) model. This approach enables taking advantage of the parallel DEVS formalism to model cyber systems and using Modelica to model physical systems. An FMU serves as a slave simulator while the DEVS-Suite serves as a master simulator. The Four-Variable model is used as a guide to define the requirements for the inputs and outputs of actuator and sensor devices used in cyber and physical systems. The input and output data as non-functional abstractions of the sensor and actuator devices. Select cyber and physical parts of an electric scooter are chosen, modeled, simulated, and evaluated using the integrated OpenModelica and the DEVS-Suite simulators. Closely related research is briefly examined and expanding this work with support for implicit state-changes for continuous models and distributed co-simulation is noted.
