In diesem Kontext sind Themenstellungen für Bachelor-/Master-/Diplom- und Studienarbeiten beispielhaft genannt. Bei Fragen oder sprechen Sie einen Betreuer bitte direkt an:

Timing

• On the Pragmatics of Interactive Timing Information Feedback for Graphical Modeling (Bachelor)
  Use Pragmatics concepts to enhance the timing information feedback of the Interactive Timing Analysis.

 SCCharts Modelling & Compilation

• Optimization of the SCCharts compiler/transformations (Bachelor/Master)
  Profile the actual SCCharts compiler/transformations and apply optimizations; also evaluate the possibility to use multiple cores for compilation
• On the pragmatics of modeling large models in SCCharts (Bachelor/Master)
  Evaluate the possibilities to create and maintain large models in model-based languages (i.e. SCCharts) and provide suggestions for improvements
• Visualization of Model-based Simulation via Tracing (Bachelor/Master)
  Use the already implemented Model-to-Model-Tracing in KIELER to visualize simulations. 
• Incremental Compilation of SCEst (Bachelor/Master)
  Modify the KIELER SCEst language so that KIELER is able to compile Esterel step-by-step to C via SCL.
  For Master Students: Also add the possibility to compile from SCCharts to SCEst. 
• Incremental Model-based Compilation of Legacy C Programs (Bachelor/Master)
  Modify the model-based compiler in KIELER so that it is able to compile C to (S)CCharts incrementally.
• Extend the SC MoC to handle priority-based variable accesses (Bachelor/Master)
  Add priorities to variable accesses to extend the SC MoC and therefore the number of valid sequentially constructive synchronous programs.
• Transformation of Circuits to SCCharts (Bachelor/Master)
  Implement a transformation that translates circuits to (dataflow) SCCharts.eSCL - Implementing gotopause (Bachelor/Master)
  Create an extended dialect of the SC Language including the gotopause statement and implement a transformation to SCL.

...

• Efficient data dependency & scheduling analyses in SCCharts (Master/Bachelor)
  Implement analyses for data dependency, scheduling (e.g. tick boundaries) for SCCharts to improve static scheduling of the compiler
• Curing Schizophrenia in SCCharts (Master/Bachelor)
  Develop new synchronizer to handle schizophrenia properly (e.g. depth join).
• SCCharts Verification (Master/Bachelor)
  Add the possibility to perfom model checking on SCCharts
• Derive M2M Transformations from Pseudocode (Master/Bachelor)
  Create a Pseudocode DSL (and generator) to automatically derive M2M transformations. 
• Raceyard evaluation (Master)
  Evaluate the possibility for the use of SCCharts in the Raceyard context and pave the way for future experiments

SCCharts Simulation

• Visualization of Model-based Simulation via Tracing (Bachelor/Master)
  Use the already implemented Model-to-Model-Tracing in KIELER to visualize simulations.
