Designing safety-critical systems is a complex process, and especially when the design is carried out at different f abstraction where the correctness of the design at one level i...
Time-triggered systems are distributed systems in which the nodes are independently-clocked but maintain synchrony with one another. Time-triggered protocols depend on the synchro...
Successive, formal refinement is a new approach for specification of embedded systems using a general-purpose programming language. Systems are formally modeled as Abstractable Sy...

A system based on a hierarchical scheduler is a system in which the processor is shared between several collaborative schedulers. Such schedulers exist since 1960 and they are bec...
