ForschungModel-based quantitative engineering of systems and processes
- Modelling (stochastic Petri nets, colored stochastic Petri nets, UML State Machines etc.)
- Evaluation (performance, dependability, timeliness etc.)
- Simulation (fine-grained distributed simulation with dynamic load balancing, efficient simulation of highly dependable systems with rare-event simulation techniques etc.)
- Analysis (numerical analysis techniques, model-structure simplifications for approximative solutions etc.)
- Optimization (speedup of indirect optimization using model structure information and preoptimization)
- Control (controlling e.g. a manufacturing system directly with a Petri net model)
... of (stochastic) discrete event dynamic systems
Application of results and methods in practice, industrial applications in the areas - Real-time systems and real-time communication in highly dependable systems
