Fault Tolerant Control Systems (FTCSs) are control systems including fault tolerant control. These systems are famous for enabling reliability, maintainability and survival ability in safe vehicle design. In some SCANIA Electronic Control Units (ECUs), the ECUs FTCS is based on a centralized fault detector to detect faults and a centralized reconfigurator to reconfigure the system with degraded performance rather than, for example completely shutting down the engine. However, with the size increasing in mechatronic system, the centralized architecture poses some problems in terms of performance, complexity and engineering facility. This thesis will present a Decentralized Service Based Architecture for FTCS. It is a hierarchy architecture composed of a completely decentralized fault diagnoser and a completely decentralized reconfigurator. The decentralized implementation in this thesis is exemplified on part of the Exhaust Emission Control 3 (EEC3) system, one of the ECUs of SCANIA. There are two main parts, denoted a decentralized diagnostic manager (DIMA) and the service based communication framework for the interaction between DIMA and reconfiguration. Compared to the centralized architecture, a decentralized action handler has been built locally in each software module so that actions can be activated as soon as the fault is detected, through which a fast and guaranteed response can be obtained. The concept Service means that the dependency between modules which is solely based on fault propagation. Service communication framework reduces the complexity of the original FTCS. Each ECU can be regarded as a node in the entire communication network of the mechantronic system in SCANIA, and once all the nodes are implemented with the decentralized service based architecture, Bayesian Network can be constructed to model the FTCS with uncertainties.

Efficient Implementation of 3D Finite Difference Schemes on Recent Processors Abstract In this paper a solver is introduced that solves a problem set modelled by the Burgers equation using the finite difference method: forward in time and central in space. The solver is parallelized and optimized for Intel Xeon Phi 7120P as well as Intel Xeon E5-2699v3 processors to investigate differences in terms of performance between the two architectures. Optimized data access and layout have been implemented to ensure good cache utilization. Loop tiling strategies are used to adjust data access with respect to the L2 cache size. Compiler hints describing aligned memory access are used to support vectorization on both processors. Additionally, prefetching strategies and streaming stores have been evaluated for the Intel Xeon Phi. Parallelization was done using OpenMP and MPI. The parallelisation for native execution on Xeon Phi is based on OpenMP and yielded a raw performance of nearly 100 GFLOP/s, reaching a speedup of almost 50 at a 83\% parallel efficiency. An OpenMP implementation on the E5-2699v3 (Haswell) processors produced up to 292 GFLOP/s, reaching a speedup of almost 31 at a 85\% parallel efficiency. For comparison a mixed implementation using interleaved communications with computations reached 267 GFLOP/s at a speedup of 28 with a 87\% parallel efficiency. Running a pure MPI implementation on the PDC's Beskow supercomputer with 16 nodes yielded a total performance of 1450 GFLOP/s and for a larger problem set it yielded a total of 2325 GFLOP/s, reaching a speedup and parallel efficiency at resp. 170 and 33,3\% and 290 and 56\%. An analysis based on the roofline performance model shows that the computations were memory bound to the L2 cache bandwidth, suggesting good L2 cache utilization for both the Haswell and the Xeon Phi's architectures. Xeon Phi performance can probably be improved by also using MPI. Keeping technological progress for computational cores in the Haswell processor in mind for the comparison, both processors perform well. Improving the stencil computations to a more compiler friendly form might improve performance more, as the compiler can possibly optimize more for the target platform. The experiments on the Cray system Beskow showed an increased efficiency from 33,3\% to 56\% for the larger problem, illustrating good weak scaling. This suggests that problem sizes should increase accordingly for larger number of nodes in order to achieve high efficiency. Frederick Ceder / Effektiv implementering av finita differensmetoder i 3D på moderna processorarkitekturer Sammanfattning Denna uppsats diskuterar implementationen av ett program som kan lösa problem modellerade efter Burgers ekvation numeriskt. Programmet är byggt ifrån grunden och använder sig av finita differensmetoder och applicerar FTCS metoden (Forward in Time Central in Space). Implementationen paralleliseras och optimeras på Intel Xeon Phi 7120P Coprocessor och Intel Xeon E5-2699v3 processorn för att undersöka skillnader i prestanda mellan de två modellerna. Vi optimerade programmet med omtanke på dataåtkomst och minneslayout för att få bra cacheutnyttjande. Loopblockningsstrategier används också för att dela upp arbetsminnet i mindre delar för att begränsa delarna i L2 cacheminnet. För att utnyttja vektorisering till fullo så används kompilatordirektiv som beskriver minnesåtkomsten, vilket ska hjälpa kompilatorn att förstå vilka dataaccesser som är alignade. Vi implementerade också prefetching strategier och streaming stores på Xeon Phi och disskuterar deras värde. Paralleliseringen gjordes med OpenMP och MPI. Parallelliseringen för Xeon Phi:en är baserad på bara OpenMP och exekverades direkt på chipet. Detta gav en rå prestanda på nästan 100 GFLOP/s och nådde en speedup på 50 med en 83% effektivitet. En OpenMP implementation på E5-2699v3 (Haswell) processorn fick upp till 292 GFLOP/s och nådde en speedup på 31 med en effektivitet på 85%. I jämnförelse fick en hybrid implementation 267 GFLOP/s och nådde en speedup på 28 med en effektivitet på 87%. En ren MPI implementation på PDC's Beskow superdator med 16 noder gav en total prestanda på 1450 GFLOP/s och för en större problemställning gav det totalt 2325 GFLOP/s, med speedup och effektivitet på respektive 170 och 33% och 290 och 56%. En analys baserad på roofline modellen visade att beräkningarna var minnesbudna till L2 cache bandbredden, vilket tyder på bra L2-cache användning för både Haswell och Xeon Phi:s arkitekturer. Xeon Phis prestanda kan förmodligen förbättras genom att även använda MPI. Håller man i åtanke de tekniska framstegen när det gäller beräkningskärnor på de senaste åren, så preseterar både arkitekturer bra. Beräkningskärnan av implementationen kan förmodligen anpassas till en mer kompilatorvänlig variant, vilket eventuellt kan leda till mer optimeringar av kompilatorn för respektive plattform. Experimenten på Cray-systemet Beskow visade en ökad effektivitet från 33,3% till 56% för större problemställningar, vilket visar tecken på bra weak scaling. Detta tyder på att effektivitet kan uppehållas om problemställningen växer med fler antal beräkningsnoder. Frederick Ceder

This diploma thesis deals with numerical simulation of pressure pulsations in elastic pipes. Continuity relation of fluid in elastic pipes, when calculating some damping in pipe material, is derived into practice. Rheological model of such a pipe corresponds to Voigt (Kelvin) model. For analysing dynamic effects in time periods are used numerical methods that deal with flow of compressible fluid: FTCS, Lax-Friedrichs and Lax-Wendroff method. The numerical results are confronted with the experiment. During the experiment simulation the method considers speed of sound in liquid like a function of pressure. This diploma thesis lays partial principles for finding elastic constants for describing dynamic characteristics of elastic pipes by measuring the pressure pulsations.
