Embedded platforms increasingly host safety-related streaming functions next to less critical ones. Whether a safety architecture pattern, such as a doer/checker pair, protects a function depends on the cores that run its components. Their schedule must meet the throughput requirement, and mixing safety integrity levels (SILs) on one core raises development cost. This report presents SafeDSE, a design space exploration framework for synchronous dataflow applications. One declarative constraint model decides the pattern of each actor, the placement that the fault model requires, the static-order schedule, and the platform, and prices SIL promotion. Guards activate the chosen patterns in a fixed graph that holds all of them, and node potentials encode throughput. An independent verifier re-checks every solution, and a generator turns its checks into evidence of a safety argument in Goal Structuring Notation. On 9 benchmark instances under period bounds, no rule that fixes patterns before mapping was both always feasible and never more expensive under conservative pricing, while joint exploration was. In the generated arguments, 49 to 62% of the leaves cite verifier checks; the rest are claims a mapping cannot discharge. Optimality within the model was proven for all synthetic graphs with up to 16 actors. This extended version adds the full model, the verifier and generator in detail, the complete catalog and parameters, and a proof of the potential characterization. It also reports every experiment per instance, a mutation analysis of the verifier, and the negative results of the development.
