<td colspan="5" class="print">0007910: Allow parallel control
parts/components</td>
</tr>
<tr class="even print">
<td class="print-category">Description</td>
<td colspan="5" class="print">Proposal:<br />
<br />
Allow creation of components (called maybe parallel control components
or PCC) from a control component. The current main control part would
run on the MCC (master control component).<br />
<br />
Example:<br />
<br />
control {<br />
  var ControlComponent pcc1 := ControlComponent.create;<br />
  var ControlComponent pcc2 := ControlComponent.create;<br />
  pcc1.start(f_start_testcase());<br />
  pcc2.start(f_start_mirror_testcase());<br />
  all component.done;<br />
}<br />
<br />
function @control f_start_testcase() {<br />
  execute(TC());<br />
}<br />
<br />
function @control f_start_mirror_testcase() {<br />
  execute(TC_mirror());<br />
}<br />
<br />
Semantics:<br />
<br />
Every parallel control part has the same semantics and capabilities as
the current control part. Since there are no global variables in TTCN-3,
there should be no interference between the testcases, so
parallelization should not be an issue.<br />
 <br />
The semantics of 'all component', 'any component' would need to be
defined in the control context. It should refer only to the control
components.<br />
Stopping and killing of control components should kill the testcase
currently running on the component (if any).<br />
<br />
Intercomponent communication for synchronization purposes between
control components could also be allowed (for instance if information
needs to flow between the MCC and the PCCs).<br />
<br />
Even system communication could be allowed, e.g. when system resources
need to be allocated globally for a parallel testcase run or other upper
tester communication.<br />
</td>
</tr>
<tr class="odd print">
<td class="print-category">Steps To Reproduce</td>
<td colspan="5" class="print">Use cases:<br />
<br />
- running actual testcase and mock/mirror-testcase in parallel<br />
- running testcases in parallel to use system resources (multiple cores
etc.) more efficiently and thus being able to produce test results
faster<br />
<br />
Of course, only those testcases that don't interfere with each other
(for instance by trying to use the same system ports) can be
parallelized, but that is outside the scope of TTCN-3 (the same problem
arises if you start multiple TTCN-3 tools in parallel).</td>

<td class="print">hmmm ... this make quite a big change in the
language.<br />
We will need a new way of passing parameters to testcases, which are
both in and out at the same time, but not inout as in that case both
testcases could modify them at the same time.<br />
<br />
We might also need to introduce synchronization into the standard.<br />
It is right now taken as granted, that const and module parameters are
read from only one place at one time ... being read in parallel might
not be the same (if for example a tool vendor uses lazy
initialization).</td>

<br />
For example and external function used for acessing some efficient data

There is so much already existing code of this kind, that need to think
of this situation (most probably such codes will not be updated all at
once).</td>

<td class="print">I don't see the parameter passing problems. Parameter
passing should work the same way as now with a single control component.
Every parallel control component can run at most one execute statement
at a time as it is blocking and can pass only its own variables into
possible inout/out parameters of the testcase, same as now. Other
information flow should be done via ports between the components.<br />
<br />
As module parameters are to initialized deterministic, as far as I can
remember (same for templates and constants), I also don't see the
synchronization issue, though of course, we need to investigate that
properly.<br />
<br />
To avoid synchronization issues of old external function
implementations, a tool vendor could take a sort of sandbox approach
where each parallel control component code runs on its own resources
(similar to now where you would have to start two different processes if
you want to run testcases in parallel).<br />
I would say, though, that this is beyond the scope of the standard and
more of a tooling issue (as pretty much everything related to external
function implementation is).</td>
