<h2 id="_monitoring"><a class="anchor" href="#_monitoring"></a>Monitoring</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph normal">
<p>Monitoring is a process of checking if the observed behavior of a component conforms to a behavioral specification. Behavioral specifications can be interface models and component models. In case of interface model the process is interface monitoring: a check if the behavior of a component that provides the interface conforms to the interface definition. In case of component model the process is component monitoring: a check if the behavior of a component conforms to the functional, time and data constraints in the model.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>To perform monitoring with the CommaSuite framework, the following ingredients are required:</p>
</div>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>Behavioral model (.interface or .component file). The model in turn imports interface and signature definitions.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>One or more trace files with events (calls to commands and signals, notifications and replies to commands) observed during a component execution. Traces are stored in files with extension .events. It is not recommended to create such files manually. They are usually obtained via network sniffing or from execution logs. Trace file names have to start with a letter and have to contain only letters, digits and underscore ("_").</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In order to perform monitoring, follow the steps:</p>
</div>
<div class="olist arabic">
<ol class="arabic">
<li>
<p>Include one or more tasks for monitor generation in the CommaSuite project file. A monitoring task has to specify how the trace files are obtained. Trace files can be listed, a folder with trace files can be given, or they can be produced by another generation task. Furthermore, the task has to indicate the behavioral model (interface or component). In the example below a single file with traces is used (TraceITest.events) for interface monitoring:</p>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>Generate Monitors {
iTestMonitor for interface ITest {
trace files
"TraceITest.events"
}
}</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The following example shows a task that uses a directory (named trace_files) with traces for component monitoring:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>Generate Monitors {
monitorTask for component Imaging {
trace directories
"trace_files"
}
}</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If the trace files are produced by another task then refer to the task:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>Generate Monitors {
iTestMonitor for interface ITest {
trace files
task traceProducer
}
}</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Trace directories have to contain trace files with unique names. If two directories contain distinct files with the same name an error will be indicated.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>During monitoring all time and data constraints defined in the interface or component are checked over the traces. In some cases users may need to skip the check of time and data constraints due to various reasons, for example when the real hardware is not present yet thus making the execution environment different than the expected one. Constraint checks can be skipped by including one of the instructions <em>skip time constraints, skip data constraints, skip constraints</em>. The following example monitoring task skips both time and data constraints:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>Generate Monitors {
iTestMonitor for interface ITest {
skip constraints
trace files
task traceProducer
}
}</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In case of component monitoring, interface monitoring is performed as well for the interfaces on each component port. Every event used in a component instance is first checked by the corresponding interface monitor and after that passed to the component monitor. The component monitor checks if functional, data and time constraints are satisfied.</p>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>Generate the monitoring code and execute it. After a right mouse button click on the project file, select 'Run As'. Select the first item: "CommaSuite Generation and Monitoring". As a result, all generator tasks will be executed followed by execution of all the monitoring tasks. Results are located in the folder "comma-gen" (explained further on this page).</p>
</li>
</ol>

<h3 id="_inspecting_the_results_of_monitoring"><a class="anchor" href="#_inspecting_the_results_of_monitoring"></a>Inspecting the Results of Monitoring</h3>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Monitoring results unite the results from all traces in all monitoring tasks in the given project file.</p>

<div class="paragraph">
<p>For a given trace:</p>
</div>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>in case of interface monitoring, all connections in the trace over the given interface are monitored</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>in case of component monitoring, all instances of the given component model are monitored</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>if trace error occurs (this is a syntax error in the events file) all monitoring stops and the results obtained so far are reported along with the trace error</p>
</li>
</ul>

<div class="paragraph">
<p>For interface monitoring, we may observe:</p>

It contains an overview of the results per trace. If you want more detailed information about the results continue to step 2. Every task results folder has the following structure:</p>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>One folder for each trace file, named after the file name</p>

<ul>
<li>
<p><em>Interface monitoring</em>.
For every connection
(usage of an interface by a unique pair of client and server)
there will be a folder with name $ServerName$_$ClientName$_$Interface$.
The folder has at least two files: $ServerName$_$ClientName$_$Interface$_trace.txt that contains the processed trace and $ServerName$_$ClientName$_$Interface$_results.txt that contains a summary of the monitoring results for the connection.
If errors and warnings are detected they will result in additional files.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p><span class="image"><img src="../img/error.jpg" alt="image"></span><br>
In case of detected issues, they are described by giving the context and their exact nature. Errors and warnings are also described in separate files that can be visualized in the PlantUML view.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Visualize the content of .plantuml files (if any) in the PlantUML view to check the description of the error/warning.
The issue is reported in a UML sequence diagram that gives the path to the error and a description.<br>
<span class="image"><img src="../img/errorPlantUML.png" alt="image"></span><br></p>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p><em>Component monitoring</em>.
For every component instance in the given trace file there will be a folder named after the component instance.
Each such folder further contains one folder per component port (named after the port), one folder per functional constraint (named after the constraint), and one folder named <em>time_data</em> that contains the results of checking the time and data constraints in the component model (if any).
The folders derived from the ports contain the results of the interface monitoring on the given port.
The results in all the folders are structured similarly to the case of interface monitoring: one text file with a summary of the results, one text file with the processed trace (up to the occurrence of an error if any), and possibly many files with error/warning descriptions.</p>

<h3 id="_interface_monitoring_and_non_determinism"><a class="anchor" href="#_interface_monitoring_and_non_determinism"></a>Interface Monitoring and Non-Determinism</h3>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Interface specifications support non-determinism by allowing multiple ways to react to a given trigger (check the interface language and the "OR" clause in particular). The presence of non-determinism affects how monitoring is performed and how monitoring results are reported.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In general, when a non-determinism is detected during monitoring, the monitor will maintain and explore all execution paths. As more events from the trace are checked by the monitor, some execution paths may be identified as erroneous and therefore discarded. If all paths at a given moment do not allow the occurrence of an event then a monitoring error is reported and contextual information for all the paths will be shown.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>We give an example of monitoring error in case of non-determinism and explain the structure of the reported results.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Imagine the interface of a simple vending machine that accepts coins and delivers products on user request. When a coin is inserted, the machine checks first if this is a valid coin and then reports the outcome to the user together with the value of possibly updated credit. If the machine is in error state then the coin is simply returned. The code snippet shows only the transition when a coin is inserted:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>initial state NoCredit {
transition trigger: InsertCoin(int val)
do: credit := credit + 1
reply(credit,CoinResult::ACCEPTED)
next state: CreditAvailable
OR
do:
reply(credit,CoinResult::NOT_ACCEPTED)
next state: NoCredit
OR
do:
reply(0,CoinResult::NOT_OPERATIONAL)
next state: NoCredit
....
}</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>After inserting the coin, the transition gives three possible paths. This is an example of non-determinism. By reading the observed reply in the trace, the monitoring algorithm can determine which path to take or possibly an error is detected. Consider the following trace:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>Command InsertCoin
Reply to command InsertCoin. Parameters: -1 CoinResult::NOT_OPERATIONAL</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The trace will cause an error because the reply parameters do not match any of the expected values given in the three possible transition bodies. All the three possible executions at the moment of observing the reply will be reported in the monitoring results.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The text file with the results will contain the following:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>Interface monitoring error
The event does not conform to the model
Possible events in the current state of the model:
Reply to command InsertCoin. Parameters: 1 CoinResult::ACCEPTED
Reply to command InsertCoin. Parameters: 0 CoinResult::NOT_ACCEPTED
Reply to command InsertCoin. Parameters: 0 CoinResult::NOT_OPERATIONAL
Execution states of the model:
Active state: NoCredit
Values of global variables and current machine states:
credit = 0
Machine userMachine in state NoCredit
Active state: NoCredit
Values of global variables and current machine states:
credit = 0
Machine userMachine in state NoCredit
Active state: NoCredit
Values of global variables and current machine states:
credit = 0
Machine userMachine in state NoCredit</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>As can be seen there is a description for each possible execution. It contains: the state in which the event is observed (active state), the values of interface variables, the current states of the interface state machines (recall that multiple machines are possible). In our example, it happens that all executions have the same information.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The visualization of the error as a sequence diagram will contain similar information:</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p><span class="image"><img src="../img/MonitorErrorAndNonDeterminism.png" alt="image"></span></p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The three sections in the note indicate the three possible executions at the moment of observing the reply. In this example they are identical.</p>

<h3 id="_singleton_and_multiton_interface_monitoring"><a class="anchor" href="#_singleton_and_multiton_interface_monitoring"></a><span id="singleton_multiton_monitoring">Singleton and Multiton Interface Monitoring</span></h3>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The singleton/multiton distinction of an interface determines how the interface is monitored. Generally, a trace file contains information about servers that provide interfaces and clients that use them. A single server may have multiple clients of a given interface. A triplet of a client that uses an interface provided by a server is called <em>connection</em>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>A multiton interface is monitored by creating a separate monitor for every connection over that interface.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>A singleton interface is monitored by creating a single monitor for all the connections that have the same server at their end. This reflects the fact that the clients of a singleton interface share one instance. In other words, the monitor of a singleton interface does not distinguish its clients, it treats them as a single client.</p>
