Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and a support device for supporting a robustness optimization for a data processing system.
- the invention further relates to a corresponding Cl system (Cl: Continuous Integration).
- DE 102012 101 747 B4 describes a data transmission system that is intended to enable reliable data transmission with a reduced bit error rate.
- both a transmitter and a receiver determine checksums based on a large number of transmitted data frames. These checksums are then compared by a checksum comparison unit, which can signal a transmission error or trigger a safety function if the compared checksums are not the same.
- EP 2 891 264 B1 describes a method for carrying out a safety function of a vehicle, in which the necessary data is transmitted to a control unit of the vehicle by means of a communication system. This generates control signals depending on the data and transmits them to a functional unit of the vehicle, which carries out the safety function depending on this. Diagnostic tests are carried out at intervals to check whether there is an error or fault in an electronic and/or programmable system used for the method that could affect the implementation of the safety function. This is intended to enable the safety functions of a vehicle to be carried out as reliably and safely as possible.
- EP 2 434695 B1 describes a method for transmitting data between participants in a serial, ring-shaped communication arrangement.
- a data packet is transmitted from a master to a slave and then from slave to slave.
- Each slave changes the address information of the data packet.
- Each slave checks the structure of the address value and uses this to determine whether the content of the data packet is intended for the respective slave.
- the slave for which the data packet is intended then generates an overflow of the address value.
- the object of the present invention is to enable an improved robustness of data processing systems in a particularly efficient manner.
- a data processing system can comprise one or more software components and one or more hardware components.
- Corresponding hardware components can - at least in their intended use or operation - be connected to one another by a data bus, i.e. a bus connection for data transmission.
- a data bus i.e. a bus connection for data transmission.
- several components of the data processing system can be serially connected to one another along such a data bus or such a bus connection.
- Such components can be, for example, control units, controllers, embedded systems, sensors and/or the like.
- Robustness optimization in the present sense can serve to enable or ensure the most robust and error-free operation of the data processing system in an eventual intended or productive operation or use.
- Robust operation can mean, for example, that the data processing system carries out or fulfills its functions as intended, i.e. correctly, under different conditions or in different situations.
- Such message sequences can be sequences of several individual messages in a specific sequence. Such individual messages can be or include data packets or data blocks or the like.
- the message sequences or their individual messages can also include further components, such as headers, time stamps and/or the like.
- the precise structure of the message sequences can depend on a particular application, i.e. on the particular data processing system whose robustness is to be optimized.
- the message sequences can, for example, be generated automatically or semi-automatically by a support device set up to carry out the method according to the invention.
- the different message sequences can be the same and correct, in particular with regard to at least one predetermined formal criterion.
- the message sequences can therefore correspond to a corresponding predetermined requirement of the data processing system for message sequences to be processed or that can be processed, in accordance with this formal criterion.
- the message sequences or their individual messages can therefore, for example, have a predetermined data format that can be processed by the respective data processing system.
- the generated message sequences can be different with regard to one or more specified secondary or test criteria or secondary or test characteristics.
- the message sequences can therefore be generated in a varied manner with regard to at least one specified test criterion or test characteristic with regard to which the robustness of the data processing system is to be checked or optimized.
- the message sequences can be generated manually, for example, or - for example using a corresponding specified algorithm - partially or fully automatically.
- the generated message sequences are sent one after the other to a receiving device, for example also by the support device.
- the receiving device can in particular be a part or a component of the respective data processing system or correspond to such a component.
- the receiving device can therefore be, for example, a control device or an embedded system or a controller or the like, for example for a motor vehicle. Since the message sequences are sent to the receiving device, i.e. transmitted to it or input to it, the receiving device can also be referred to as a target device or target control device.
- the message sequences can be fed to the receiving device directly or in a controlled manner, in particular directly via a corresponding interface of the receiving device or via a controlled data connection, such as an Ethernet connection or the like.
- this cannot be a bus connection with one or more components or nodes connected between a transmitter of the message sequences and the receiving device.
- variations or unknown or uncontrolled influences of such a bus connection comprising several components or sections can be avoided. This can ultimately lead to or contribute to more precise results more efficiently.
- the receiving device is set up to receive and process corresponding message sequences.
- the message sequences can therefore in principle, in their type, properties, structure, content and/or the like, they should be generated in accordance with the message sequences that the receiving device or a corresponding component in the respective data processing system is intended to receive and process in its ultimate intended, productive use or operation.
- error messages generated in response to the message sequence i.e. during its processing by the receiving device, are recorded, for example also by the support device.
- error messages can also be received, for example, by the support device set up to carry out the method according to the invention.
- one of these message sequences generated and processed by the receiving device is classified as the most problematic message sequence and is issued as the basis for appropriate error correction, for example also by the support facility.
- the most problematic message sequence can therefore be the message sequence or sequences that particularly reliably or effectively lead to error messages from the receiving device. This means that errors or weaknesses in the receiving device can be particularly effectively detected and corresponding error messages reproduced.
- receiving device or a computer or operating program executed therein or by it for processing the message sequences or corresponding program code or the like.
- This may in particular involve errors or vulnerabilities in such a computer or operating program or corresponding program code, i.e. corresponding software of the receiving device.
- the support offered by the present invention makes it possible to identify, understand and, if necessary, particularly effectively, specifically and quickly identify and understand errors or vulnerabilities that occur only relatively rarely or without an obvious pattern from the outset, i.e. errors or vulnerabilities that are particularly difficult to reproduce.
- This can represent a significant advantage for effectively improving the robustness of corresponding functions or systems that provide bus-based data or message transmission to data processing systems that include at least the respective receiving device. This can be seen in comparison to previous approaches in which, for example, error messages that occur randomly during use of the receiving device or the corresponding data processing system are collected and analyzed or attempts are made to identify an underlying error or vulnerability based on such randomly occurring error messages.
- An efficient improvement in the robustness of data processing systems thus made possible by the present invention can, depending on the application, lead to or contribute to, for example, greater security, reduced costs, faster task completion and/or the like.
- the generated message sequences contain the same individual messages. This can, for example, correspond to the formal criterion mentioned elsewhere. In the embodiment of the present invention proposed here, however, the generated message sequences vary in the time intervals between these Individual messages. These different time intervals between the individual messages can correspond to the search or test criteria or characteristics mentioned elsewhere. The different message sequences can therefore contain the same content, but have different timings for this content. Depending on the application, the individual messages can be arranged in the same order in all generated message sequences. This makes it possible to identify particularly specific or targeted errors or weak points that are attributable to or susceptible to timing variations, i.e. differences or deviations in the time intervals between the individual messages within a message sequence.
- the message sequences or a second set of message sequences can be generated with varied, i.e. different, orders of the individual messages.
- uniform timing i.e. the same time intervals or spacing patterns or spacing sequences between the individual messages. This makes it possible to identify particularly specific or targeted errors or weak points that can be traced back to or are susceptible to deviations in the order of the individual messages.
- the message sequences or a set of message sequences can be generated with both varied timings and varied sequences of the individual messages. This allows different or complex errors or vulnerabilities that only occur or are relevant with a combination of certain timings and sequences of the individual messages to be identified by causing or triggering corresponding error messages using appropriate message sequences.
- timing variations within the message sequences proposed here can be particularly useful for triggering unforeseen, random and/or relatively rare error messages that are typically difficult to reproduce.
- timing variations can occur, for example, due to unforeseen combinations of several factors that may lie outside the immediate task or working area of the receiving device. This can, for example, depend on relative sampling or Computing frequencies or corresponding phase positions in different components of the data processing system and/or different workloads and/or different fill levels of a buffer or intermediate storage and/or the like. In practice, such effects can lead to the individual messages of a message sequence being recorded, processed and/or forwarded to the receiving device via the data bus at different speeds.
- each message sequence is sent to the receiving device multiple times. All error messages that occur are then taken into account to determine the most problematic message sequence.
- multiple instances of each of the message sequences can be sent to the receiving device and processed by it.
- the error messages generated or generated for all instances of a message sequence can then be counted, i.e. added or cumulated, for example.
- the corresponding cumulative error messages from all instances of a specific message sequence or their number can then be assigned to the respective message sequence.
- These cumulative numbers of error messages for all message sequences can then be compared with one another. Likewise, however, an average or median of the numbers of error messages generated or generated when processing the multiple instances of a message sequence can be formed and used as the corresponding comparison value.
- the message sequence for which the largest corresponding average was determined can then be output as the most problematic message sequence or as the message sequence whose processing by the receiving device generated the most error messages.
- the occurrence of error messages can depend on the respective time of receipt of a message sequence or an individual message, for example relative to a point or phase in a clock cycle of the receiving device and/or on the fill level of an input buffer or intermediate storage of the receiving device, which can only be reached after several message sequences are completely filled, and/or the like.
- the corresponding individual instances of the message sequence can, for example, be sent to the receiving device at least in part directly one after the other or at different time intervals from one another. This means that errors or weak points based on or susceptible to them can be particularly reliably detected or identified accordingly easily and reliably. This can ultimately lead to or contribute to a further improvement in the robustness of the receiving device or the corresponding data processing system.
- the different message sequences are generated using a predetermined genetic algorithm.
- a genetic algorithm can generate message sequences for a particular user in a particularly simple and low-effort and particularly reliable manner that generate a particularly large number of error messages or lead particularly reliably to the generation of at least one error message.
- the genetic algorithm can, for example, automatically reinforce or retain properties of message sequences that ultimately lead to error messages or ultimately accumulate or concentrate them in the most problematic message sequence. This can be independent of whether the specific properties responsible for an error message from the receiving device or corresponding values of a specific property are known in advance to the respective user or operator or not.
- problematic message sequences i.e. those that particularly frequently or reliably lead to error messages, can be generated or found more reliably and/or more quickly or with less overall effort than, for example, by purely randomly generating different message sequences or - which is hardly practicable - generating and processing all possible different message sequences.
- a respective sequence of the time intervals between the respective message sequences contained individual messages.
- the timings mentioned elsewhere can be used to vary the message sequences.
- a time interval between two consecutive individual messages of a specific message sequence can form a gene of these message sequences.
- the individual messages or their order can be the same for all message sequences.
- the gene sequences of the message sequences can therefore be represented here, for example, as a simple sequence of numbers, where each number can indicate the time interval between two consecutive individual messages. This means that the gene sequences can be handled and processed with particularly little effort, since, for example, in order to describe a message sequence using its gene sequence, no actual data content of the respective message sequence needs to be specified or processed.
- the number and/or severity and/or type of error messages generated by the receiving device when they are processed is used in or by the genetic algorithm as a measure of the fitness of the message sequences.
- a corresponding hierarchy, ranking list or sequence can also be specified for the severity of the error messages, in which different types or properties or effects of error messages can be specified in a predetermined sorted manner.
- the embodiment of the present invention proposed here ultimately makes it possible to determine a message sequence leading to particularly important or relevant errors particularly reliably. This can enable optimization of the robustness of the respective data processing system with prioritized processing or consideration of particularly serious and/or relevant errors or vulnerabilities. For example, a less serious error can lead to an unexpected delay without disrupting or preventing the basic functioning of the receiving device or the data processing system. A serious error or a more serious vulnerability, on the other hand, can lead, for example, to a safety-relevant malfunction or to a hard termination or abort of a function or program sequence or the like. Thus, the embodiment of the present invention proposed here can enable a correspondingly prioritized optimization by appropriately prioritizing error messages and thus ultimately achieve a particularly efficient and effective improvement in the security and/or reliability of the data processing system.
- new generations i.e. new varied message sequences
- the genetic algorithm or the generation of new generations or individuals, i.e. new message sequences, is therefore automatically stopped when the convergence criterion and/or the termination criterion is met, for example, whichever comes first.
- a convergence of the message sequences or the properties of the message sequences can be checked for a particularly problematic message sequence or a corresponding property or a corresponding set of properties or for at least one cluster of problematic message sequences with the same or similar properties.
- it can be determined, for example, whether the message sequences that prevail in the genetic algorithm, i.e. according to the predetermined measure of fitness fittest message sequences remain at least essentially the same across several generations.
- a corresponding cluster i.e. a grouping of message sequences and/or properties of message sequences, can be created or identified in a corresponding abstract vector or feature space, for example.
- Cluster analysis can be used for this purpose. The convergence criterion can be met, for example, if the fittest message sequence or its property or properties lie or remain within a corresponding cluster over a given number of generations. Likewise, several clusters that develop over several generations can be identified. Several parallel clusters can indicate different errors or weaknesses. These can then be identified separately and, if necessary, remedied.
- a specified minimum size or a specified minimum number of error messages and/or message sequences in a cluster can be used or taken into account as a convergence criterion or as a relevance criterion for a cluster.
- a cluster can only be recognized as such or as relevant if it reaches the specified minimum size, i.e. - for example within a specified maximum distance from one another - contains or includes or represents at least the specified minimum number of message sequences and/or error messages.
- the corresponding distance can be determined, for example, by means of an abstract distance criterion, for example as a Mahalanobis distance or the like.
- the embodiment of the present invention proposed here can limit or specify the effort required to carry out the method according to the invention. This means that the method according to the invention can be used accordingly effectively and efficiently.
- the proposed cluster analysis can also identify several different errors or weak points at the same time. This can also contribute to improved efficiency of robustness optimization.
- a type and/or severity of the error messages or the errors underlying them recorded.
- the respective type and/or severity of the error messages is then taken into account in combination with the respective number of error messages to determine the most problematic message sequence.
- the error messages can be weighted according to their type and/or severity or depending on this.
- the hierarchy or ranking or sequence of error messages or error message types mentioned elsewhere can be used or taken as a basis.
- an error message that is more serious or that is hierarchically higher or needs to be prioritized can be counted as more than one error message and in other ways have a greater influence on determining the most problematic message sequence than an error message that is less serious or that is less highly classified or that is not or needs to be prioritized less.
- the present invention also relates to a support device for supporting robustness optimization for a data processing system, in particular a bus-based one as intended.
- the support device according to the invention has a processing device, for example a microchip, microprocessor or microcontroller or the like, and a computer-readable data memory coupled thereto.
- the support device according to the invention has at least one interface for sending message sequences to a receiving device and for receiving resulting error messages from the receiving device or devices.
- the support device according to the invention is set up to carry out the method according to the invention, in particular automatically or semi-automatically.
- a corresponding operating or computer program that codes or implements the method steps, sequences or measures mentioned in connection with the method according to the invention can be stored in the data memory.
- the support device according to the invention can in particular be the support device mentioned in connection with the method according to the invention or correspond to it.
- the present invention also relates to a CI system for continuous software integration.
- the CI system according to the invention comprises a support device according to the invention.
- the CI system according to the invention is thus set up to automatically check incoming or recorded software components, i.e. corresponding program code or the like, for errors or susceptibility to errors or robustness using the support device, i.e. using the method according to the invention.
- different message sequences can be automatically generated by the support device and sent as input to the incoming or recorded software components or the respective program code for processing.
- the CI system can also be set up to use the respective incoming or recorded software component or the respective program code to update a predetermined test version of a more comprehensive software, for example stored in a data memory of the CI system, and/or a receiving device or data processing system provided for such test purposes or connected to the CI system for intended use, and to send the generated message sequences to this software and/or this receiving device. Resulting error messages can then be automatically recorded by the support device.
- the Cl system according to the invention is designed to release the respective software component for integration, for example to deliver it and/or to integrate it automatically into a corresponding productive system, in the event that no error message is generated or recorded during the check.
- the Cl system according to the invention is designed to reject the respective software component and automatically create a corresponding report if at least one error message is generated or recorded during the check.
- a report can in particular also include the most problematic message sequence determined in each case, for example together with the corresponding error messages.
- the respective report can, for example, be stored in a data memory of the Cl system and/or output via a corresponding interface and/or sent as an e-mail or the like and/or the like.
- the Cl system according to the invention can thus Continuous software integration can be implemented or realized in a particularly secure and reliable manner.
- the Cl system according to the invention can also be set up to store the most problematic message sequence for a rejected software component, for example provided with a corresponding assignment or identification. This message sequence can then be used when checking it, for example when a new version or revision of the respective software component is received or recorded. For example, the most problematic message sequence previously determined can be used as the first message sequence for checking the new software components or the correspondingly updated software. If necessary, the respective message sequence can be used as a starting point for generating further message sequences and/or as at least part of a first generation for the genetic algorithm explained in connection with the method according to the invention.
- the Cl system can therefore be set up to automatically generate a new or future release test when a software component is rejected, in particular depending on the most problematic message sequence or a pattern of message sequence properties and/or error messages found with it.
- the Cl system according to the invention can also be a CD system (CD: Continuous Delivery) or a part of a CD system.
- Fig. 1 is an exemplary schematic representation of a message sequence for a data processing system
- Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating the generation of different message sequences using a genetic algorithm
- Fig. 3 is an exemplary schematic overview diagram to illustrate a Cl system with integrated robustness optimization.
- An example of a software or data processing application in which errors should be avoided as far as possible, also for safety reasons, is the determination and output of a locally permissible maximum speed by a corresponding assistance system of a motor vehicle.
- Such an assistance system can, for example, receive and process map data in a corresponding control unit to determine the permissible maximum speed.
- map data can, for example, be sent from a navigation device to the control unit via a data bus, i.e. as bus messages.
- the ADAS protocol can be used for this, for example.
- this protocol can be susceptible or sensitive both to errors or unexpected deviations or variations in the timing of corresponding messages, i.e. corresponding data packets or the like, and to the order of messages or data packets.
- the control unit may not process the corresponding message or messages correctly and accordingly output an error message 15 (see Fig. 3), in particular via the data bus.
- FIG. 1 shows an example schematic representation of a corresponding message sequence 1.
- the message sequence 1 here comprises several individual messages 2 with a time interval 3 between them.
- the individual messages 2 can be, for example, signals or data blocks from different functions and/or devices that are intended to be sent via the data bus in a predetermined order and with certain time intervals 3 from one another.
- corresponding control unit landscapes that comprise several control units or other devices, such as sensors or the like, that are connected to one another via a data bus and communicate with error-sensitive bus messages, it can be a problem to identify errors or weak points in the processing of these bus messages. This can be due to the fact that timing problems, for example different time intervals 3 between the individual messages 2, can often occur, which can be difficult to detect and reproduce.
- the time intervals 3 of the message sequence 1 can therefore be different or varied and the genetic algorithm can ultimately generate a large number of such message sequences 1 with differently varied time intervals 3 between the individual messages 2.
- the message sequences 1 can be described by a respective gene sequence, which can be determined or defined by the respective sequence of time intervals 3 of the respective message sequence 1.
- Fig. 2 shows an exemplary schematic overview of several corresponding individuals 4 to which the genetic algorithm can be applied.
- the individuals 4 are defined here by their gene sequences, i.e. a respective sequence of distances 3.
- Different individuals 4 can have similarities and/or differences.
- a commonality between two individuals 4 can, for example, consist of the fact that the same temporal distance 3 is at the same position in the respective gene sequence.
- all of the individuals 4 corresponding message sequences 1 must be the same and correct with respect to at least one predetermined formal criterion, i.e., for example, they must have all the individual messages 2 expected in the respective application in a predetermined correct order.
- the individuals 4 can, for example, all have the same number of genes, i.e., individual distances 3.
- different individuals 4 can be combined with one another and - for example random - mutations, i.e. changes in one or more distances 3 of an individual 4, can be generated.
- a respective fitness measure or a respective fitness can be determined for each individual 4.
- the corresponding message sequence 1 can be generated using the gene sequence of each individual 4 and sent to the control unit, in particular several times in succession.
- the error messages 15 resulting for each message sequence 1, i.e. those generated by the control unit when processing the respective message sequence 1, can then be recorded. Based on these error messages 15, in particular their number or their type and/or severity, the fitness measure or the fitness of the respective message sequence 1 and thus also of the corresponding individual 4 can then be determined for the genetic algorithm.
- fit individuals 4 or individuals 4 that are fitter than other individuals 4 or their genes can be preferred over weak, i.e. less fit, individuals 4 in gene-wise pairing.
- mutations i.e. changes to individual distances 3
- a new generation of individuals 4 can be generated using the genetic algorithm.
- the message sequences 1 corresponding to these individuals 4 of the new generation can then also be sent to the control unit in order to record resulting error messages 15 and, based on this, to determine the respective fitness of the individuals 4 of the new generation.
- 100 different individuals 4 can initially be generated as a starting point, which can then each be sent to the control unit 10 times.
- other values can also be used here.
- the genetic algorithm can then be applied based on this, for example, until a convergence on a specific individual 4 or a cluster of individuals 4 occurs. which, for example, can be used to produce or initiate particularly reliably a particularly large number of and/or serious error messages 15.
- FIG. 3 shows an exemplary schematic overview of a Cl system 5.
- the Cl system 5 has, as indicated schematically here, one or more interfaces 6, a processor 7 and a data memory 8.
- a corresponding test program 9 can be stored which includes or implements the genetic algorithm.
- further data, software components, computer programs and/or the like can be stored in the data memory 8.
- the Cl system 5 can, for example, detect a software component candidate 10 via the interface 6.
- the software component candidate 10 can, for example, be new or updated program code that is to be incorporated into software maintained by means of the Cl system 5 or a corresponding data processing system. Instead of doing this immediately, however, this software component candidate 10 can first be tested in the manner described.
- the software component candidate 10 can, for example, first be loaded onto a predetermined test device 11.
- the test device 11 can, for example, have a test device interface 12, a test device processor 13 and a test device data memory 14.
- the test device 11 can, for example, correspond to the previously mentioned control device.
- the test device 11 can be connected to the Cl system 5 via an Ethernet connection.
- the Cl system 5 can then send the different message sequences 1 generated by the genetic algorithm to the test device 11 for processing, for example via the SomelP protocol or the like.
- Any resulting error messages 15 can be recorded by the Cl system 5 and taken into account by the test program 9 as described.
- the test program 9 can therefore adjust the timing, i.e. the spacing 3, of the message sequences 1 based on the recorded error messages 15, for example. This can be continued until a definitive most problematic individual 4 or a corresponding message sequence 1 or a definitive error pattern has been found.
- the Cl system 5 can output a corresponding output 16.
- the output 16 can be, for example, the software component candidate 10, which can then be released or added, for example. If, on the other hand, error messages 15 were recorded, a corresponding report can be output as output 16, for example. This can be used to specify or output, for example, the software component candidate 10, the most problematic message sequence 1 determined by the test program 9, and the error messages 15 generated by the test device 11 when processing this message sequence 1.
- Such an output 16 can support an analysis of the underlying errors or weak points of the test device 11, for example by specifically reproducing a corresponding problem, for example in a computer-aided debugging environment or the like.
- timing-based errors in sequence-dependent bus-based data processing systems can be found using a genetic algorithm.
