TimeAnalyzer in real-time networks

Objective

TCN TimeAnalyzer™ is a unique application providing worst-case (and best-case) timing predictions of a switched Ethernet
network by analyzing a model of the network.

A central part in TCN TimeAnalyzer™ is the computational engine that implements a set of formulas that allows the
computation of upper bounds on frame latency, jitter and maximum frame buffer space required in each switch. The formulas
are a result of applying real-time scheduling analysis to packet forwarding in a packet switched Ethernet network. These
formulas constitute a computational model which allows the prediction of how the limited speed of physical network devices
and contention among different packets for the same network resources gives rise to latency, jitter, etc. for a specific packet
forwarded between two nodes in the network. The computational analysis engine will incorporate models of every
component used in the network and also every other entity that compete for the same network resources as the packet
under observation.

TCN TimeAnalyzer™ builds simulation models of how different configuration parameters and packet scheduling
mechanisms of certain switches will affect worst case traffic situations.

A feasibility study shall be developed verifying the technological/practical as well as economic viability of the innovation.
Activities will focus on innovation activities such as demonstration, testing, prototyping, piloting, scaling-up, design aiming to
bring the product to industrial readiness and maturity for market introduction. It will also include some research to further
develop the computational engine.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.

SME-1 - SME instrument phase 1

Coordinator

TIME-CRITICAL NETWORKS AB
Net EU contribution

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
