Conceptual Study of Simulated Software Test Bench Based On Processor Emulator for Integrated Performance Verification of Satellite On-board Software

Abstract

Software Test Bench should be simulated with maximum quality to real execution environment in order to verify the performance of software which is changed or newly developed. And especially faults detection and recovery are crucial function of the performance test environment. Simulated Software Test Bench based on processor emulator is attractive and can be available prior to hardware Software Test Bench if real time performance aspect is ignored. In this paper, the results of conceptual study for developing the simulated Software Test Bench are presented.
