Book description
The increased complexity of embedded systems coupled with quick design
cycles to accommodate faster time-to-market requires increased system
design productivity that involves both model-based design and
tool-supported methodologies.
Formal methods are mathematically-based techniques and provide a
clean framework in which to express requirements and models of the
systems, taking into account discrete, stochastic and continuous
(timed or hybrid) parameters with increasingly efficient tools.
This book deals with these formal methods applied to communicating
embedded systems by presenting the related industrial challenges and
the issues of modeling, model-checking, diagnosis and control
synthesis, and by describing the main associated automated tools.
