ARCHITECTURE OPTIMIZATION

摘要

A computerized method, system and computer product for automatic architecture generation is disclosed. The computerized method includes receiving a functional description of an architecture of a system, wherein the system architecture includes a plurality of functions and a plurality of functional links between the functions, receiving or defining at least one functional failure case and its maximum allowed failure probability, defining an algebraic function approximating the probability of occurrence of each failure case, automatically generating an optimized architecture using an optimization solver wherein all architecture's one approximated failure probabilities are smaller than the maximum allowed probability for the respective failure cases and outputting the automatically generated architecture.

1. A computerized method for automatic architecture generation, comprising:
receiving a functional description of an architecture of a system, said functional description comprising a plurality of functions and a plurality of functional links between said plurality of functions; defining at least one functional failure case and a maximum allowed failure probability for said at least one functional failure case; defining an algebraic function approximating the probability of occurrence of said at least one functional failure case; automatically generating an architecture having an approximated failure probability which is smaller than said maximum allowed at least one failure probability using said algebraic function; and outputting said automatically generated architecture.
