Real-Time Systems: Formal Specification and Automatic Verification
Real-Time Systems: Formal Specification and Automatic Verification
344 pages | Cambridge University Press; 1 edition (October 6, 2008) | 0521883334 | PDF | 1 Mb
Real-time systems need to react to certain input stimuli within given time bounds. For example, an airbag in a car has to unfold within 300 milliseconds in a crash. There are many embedded safety-critical applications and each requires real-time specification techniques. This text introduces three of these techniques, based on logic and automata: duration calculus, timed automata, and PLC-automata. The techniques are brought together to form a seamless design flow, from real-time requirements specified in the duration calculus; via designs specified by PLC-automata; and into source code for hardware platforms of embedded systems.
