We propose a thread-based modeling and analysis method for a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication device, according to the performance requirements of the V2X application. For a developer to develop a V2X device or application, its performance requirements must first be determined. Furthermore, the developer selects the hardware system to enable the service to function while satisfying the performance requirements. Through this process, the developer designs and creates the program in a manner that considers thread configuration and core mapping with the given hardware resources. Then, the performance evaluation of a system is tested via instruction-level program analysis with executable programs. This process is an essential procedure for developing a program that satisfies the performance requirements. However, the debugging procedure repeated through program development, performance analysis, and program modification requires significant time and is costly. Hence, to reduce the time and cost of unnecessary work, we propose a thread-level modeling and analysis method using a queueing theory for a V2X communication device that can be applied at the design level. First, we propose a thread-level performance modeling and analysis method based on queuing theory in a multi-core-based vehicle service system. Furthermore, we analyze the performance of a multi-core-based vehicle service system utilizing the proposed method.
