EVOLVABLE ADAS: H-GQM S.M.A.R.T.E.S.T. APPROACH
D.E. Chickrin, А. А. Egorchev, D.V. Ermakov2020-07-20Abstract ▼The introduction to the mass market of vehicles with an ADAS 3+ level of automation is expected
in the early 2020s. Currently, the vast majority of automakers conduct research in this
field, a fairly large number of prototypes, pre-production and production systems have already
been demonstrated. ADAS (advanced driver assistance systems) are complex hardware & software
systems, the feature of which is that the core hardware platform remains unchanged for one or
even several generations of vehicles (5–7 years). At the same time, the system should be able to
transform and evolve to correct errors and expand functionality, especially due to active development
of sensory peripheral systems and software algorithms. The GQM methodology and its modifications
are used to support the development process of complex systems and evaluate them.
However, these methodologies are limited exclusively to software products. Also, authors of these
methodologies are not addressing explicitly the issues of applying the GQM methodology for analyzing
and tracking the process of evolution of complex technical systems. This paper presents HGQM
(Hardware GQM) methodology for controllable evolution of complex automotive hardware
& software systems. The H-GQM methodology is based on GQM and is aimed at hardwaresoftware
systems with a monolithic hardware core, a modifiable software core and atomic peripherals.
Entity harmonization process is described to prove the applicability of the GQM for software-
and-hardware systems analysis. S.M.A.R.T.E.S.T goal-setting concept is proposed for choice
of evolutionary goals. This concept is based on S.M.A.R.T. criteria for the setting objectives of
business processes and extended with harmonization and evolvability restrictions. The formulation
of the H-GQM plan framework is provided using ADAS as an example. Within the framework of
the proposed methodology, an ADAS-specific scalable target template has been formed. -
SOLUTIONS’ ENCODING IN EVOLUTIONARY METHODS FOR INSTRUMENTAL DESIGN PLATFORM
E.V. Kuliev, А. А. Lezhebokov, М. М. Semenova, V.A. Semenov2020-07-20Abstract ▼The article considers current issues and analyzes the problems of three-dimensional integration
and three-dimensional modeling that arise at the design stage during the solution of the
problem of optimal planning of components of large and extra-large integrated circuits and case
devices of electronic computing equipment. The main advantages of applying the principles of
three-dimensional integration are presented and described in sufficient detail, which allow efficiently
organizing the production of personalized electronics, optimally planning the configuration
of large and ultra-large integrated circuits, taking into account thermal and energy characteristics.
In the course of research, the authors developed an approach to encoding decisions based on
an intelligent mechanism, which is characterized by the presence of built-in means of control of
acceptable decisions. One of such tools that have experimentally proven their effectiveness is the
built-in mechanism of “deadly mutations”, which takes into account the status of genes and predetermined
restrictions on the final configuration of the housing of the designed device. A series of
general approaches and specific algorithms for solving the planning problem based on the results
of research by the author's team and modern approaches to solving NP-complete problems are
proposed. The most important practically significant result of the research of the indicated problem
is the developed software and instrumental design platform in the modern cross-platform Java
programming language. The selected development technology allows you to use all the main advantages
of modern multi-core and multi-processor architectures, to use software multi-threading
to implement parallel schemes for solving combinatorial problems. The software and tool platform
has a user-friendly interface, which allows you to effectively manage the process of solving the
problem of planning the components of large and ultra-large integrated circuits of threedimensional
integration by visualizing key performance indicators of algorithms on graphs and in
text statistics blocks. The developed application software made it possible to carry out a series of
computational experiments based on random data sets, as well as on open-data boron benchmarks
for such tasks. The results of experimental studies have confirmed the theoretical estimates of the
time complexity and effectiveness of the proposed approaches and algorithms, including the genetic
algorithm, which uses the new decision coding mechanism proposed in the work. -
DEVELOPMENT OF BIOHEURISTICS FOR CREATING AN INTELLECTUAL SUBSYSTEM FOR MAKING EFFECTIVE DECISIONS OF NP-HARD AND NP-DIFFICULT COMBINATORY-LOGICAL PROBLEMS ON GRAPHS
D. V. Zaruba , E. V. Kuliev , D.Y. Zaporozhets , M. M. Semenova2021-11-14Abstract ▼The article is devoted to the solution of new topical problems that have arisen in the conditions
of the modern development of information and nanometer technologies in the field of design,
as well as the development of new innovative methods that provide effective solutions in polynomial
time. The article deals with the problem of solving NP-hard problems. The description of the
procedure for measuring the complexity of the problem is presented the features of NP-hard and
NP-difficult combinatorial logic problems are described. The main differences between the tasks
are presented, as well as the problems that one has to face when solving this type of task. The general
decision-making scheme is presented, consisting of the problem formulation; decisionmaking;
signal in automatic systems and feedback. At the second stage (formation and selection of
solutions), the solution is based on a bioinspired algorithm for finding solutions to the traveling
salesman problem. To solve this problem, a modified bioinspired algorithm based on the behaviorof an ant colony was developed. Unlike other optimization methods, metaheuristic algorithms can
find global optimal solutions for problems where there are many local solutions due to their random
nature. These reasons have led to the widespread use of such algorithms in solving various
optimization problems. Bioinspired algorithms are becoming a new revolution in the field of solving
optimization problems. The statement of the traveling salesman problem is presented, as well
as the solution of the problem on the basis of the ant algorithm. Algorithms such as genetic algorithms
and PSO can be very useful, but they still have some disadvantages in solving multimodal
optimization problems. These algorithms can find optimal solutions regardless of the physical
nature of the problem. In the framework of experimental studies, the analysis of the work of
bioinspired algorithms was carried out: the algorithm of a flock of bats, the bacterial algorithm
and the ant algorithm.
