The IEEE 802.1Q-2018 standard embeds in Ethernet bridges novel features that are very important for automated driving, such as the support for time-driven communications. However, cars move in a world where unpredictable events may occur and determine unforeseen situations. To properly react to such situations, the in-car communication system has to support event-driven transmissions with very low and bounded delays. This work provides the performance evaluation of EDSched, a traffic management scheme for IEEE 802.1Q bridges and end nodes that introduces explicit support for event-driven real-time traffic. EDSched works at the MAC layer and builds upon the mechanisms defined in the IEEE 802.1Q-2018 standard.

Command and control (C2) and communication are at the heart of successful military operations in network-centric warfare. Interoperable simulation of a C2 system model and a communication (C) system model may be employed to interactively analyze their detailed behaviors. However, such simulation would be inefficient in simulation time for analysis of combat effectiveness of the C2 model against possible input combinations while considering the communication effect in combat operations. This study proposes a discrete event dynamic surrogate model (DEDSM) for the C model, which would be integrated with the C2 model and simulated. The proposed integrated simulation reduces execution time markedly in analysis of combat effectiveness without sacrificing the accuracy reflecting the communication effect. We hypothesize the DEDSM as a probabilistic priority queuing model whose semantics is expressed in a discrete event systems specification model with some characteristic functions unknown. The unknown functions are identified by machine learning with a data set generated by interoperable simulation of the C2 and C models. The case study with the command, control, and communication system of systems first validates the proposed approach through an equivalence test between the interoperable simulation and the proposed one. It then compares the simulation execution times and the number of events exchanged between the two simulations.
