Abstract

This paper provides two contributions to the research on applying domain-specific modeling languages to distributed real-time embedded (DRE) systems. First, we present the Alderis platform-independent visual language for component-based system development. Second, we demonstrate the use of the Alderis language on a helicopter autopilot DRE design. The Alderis language is based on the concept of platform-based design, and explicitly captures asynchronous event-driven component interactions as well as the underlying platform for the computation. Unlike most modeling languages, Alderis has formally defined semantics providing a way for the formal verification of dense real-time properties and energy consumption.
