Abstract
Distributed Real-Time Embedded (DRE) systems have critical requirements that need to be verified. They are either related to functional (e. g. stability of a furnace controller) or non-functional (e. g. meeting deadlines) aspects. Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) tools have emerged to ease DRE systems design. These tools are also capable of generating code. However, these tools either focus on the functional aspects or on the runtime architecture. Hence, the development cycle is partitioned into pieces with heterogeneous modeling notations and poor coordination. In this paper, we propose a MDE-based process to create DRE systems without manual coding. We show how to integrate functional and architecture concerns in a unified process. We use industry-proven modeling languages to design functional elements of the system, and automatically integrate them using our AADL toolchain.
