Workshop Program - Presentation Abstract


A framework for architectural description of embedded systems

In this paper a new approach for describing embedded systems is presented. The approach is based on the composition of hardware and software components with the addition of an interface between them. Non-functional constraints for components and their interfaces can also be modeled and verified. As such, the component-based view presented here differs from traditional component-based views, where focus is laid on the functional part. The ideas discussed in this paper have been implemented in a tool. This tool enables the description of an embedded system through a specific language. It can also allow the behavioral simulation and the non-functional verification of the hardware and software components.
