Abstract

Building complex real-time embedded systems requires assembly of heterogeneous components, possibly using various computation and communication models. A great challenge is to be able to design such systems using models where these heterogeneity characteristics are described precisely to assist the next step of the development including implementation or analysis. Although the new MARTE standard provides the core concepts to model real-time components using various communication paradigms, we state in this paper that MARTE extensions have still to be made and we propose to extract common features from several component based approaches in order to support finer compositions of heterogeneous sub-systems.
