摘要
This paper proposes a strategy to assist the designer in evaluating the impact of a design choice with respect to the nonfunctional requirements in embedded systems. We use several regression models to predict physical metrics from design metrics in order to estimate the impact on performance of software changes in the early development stages. This prediction can be used during maintenance to compare alternative design changes before implementation. Such an early estimation allows an efficient design space exploration with no penalty in the development time, which are crucial aspects for an embedded system.
