Abstract

Engineers are faced nowadays with the challenge of designing strongly distributed control systems, with complex interactions. There is little theory and tool support to address this recent challenge. Control engineering and telecom engineering have dedicated but unrelated techniques, each for their specific domain. In this paper, we explore an approach where we combine two complementary formal methods, with good tool support and industrial acceptance:SCADE/Lustre from the Control Engineering domain, and SDL, from the Telecom domain.
