Design of a Functional Size Measurement Procedure for Real-Time Embedded Software Requirements Expressed using the Simulink Model
Bibliographic record
Abstract
To obtain the functional size of software and reduce measurement variance caused by the interpretations of individual measurers, a number of measurement procedureshave been designed based on measurement methods approved as international standards. To date, most of these procedures have targeted Management Information Systems software, while only a few were designed for real-time and reactiveembedded software. In this paper, we propose a functional size measurement (FSM) procedure for real-time embedded software, based on the COSMIC method, version 3.0.1 (ISO 19761), and with requirements documented using the Simulinkmodel. The design of this FSM procedure is based on the mapping of key concepts in both Simulink and COSMIC, and the identification of the mapping rules for extracting the information stored in the Simulink files that is required formeasurement. This procedure therefore provides the foundation for automating the measurement of software requirements documented using Simulink. The backgroundstudy for this procedure was conducted at Renault SAS using ECU (Electronic Control Unit) functional requirements expressed with the Simulink tool.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
