چکیده
The other important property of reactive systems is the inherent concurrency of their functionality. By notions of modern software design, the natural concurrency in interaction between a reactive system and its environment and within the system itself has to be reflected on the embedded software architecture. Insisting on the resemblance between the real-life problem structure and the structure of the software features important qualities of the software development methodology: proper problem decomposition, solution scalability, separation of concerns among the system components, software and hardware distribution, system components maintainability.

Mechatronic Systems – Innovative Products with Embedded Control –
Many technical processes and products in the area of mechanical and electrical engineering are showing an increasing integration of mechanics with digital electronics and information processing. This integration is between the components (hardware) and the information-driven functions (software), resulting in integrated systems called mechatronic systems. Their development involves finding an o...
متن کاملEmbedded Software Development for Mechatronic Systems
The widespread use of mechatronic systems mandates a rigorous engineering approach towards embedded software development, i.e. model based development using repositories of prefabricated software components. The main problem that has to be addressed in this context is to systematically develop the software framework for mechatronic applications, taking into account the true nature of them, whic...

With the introduction of low-cost wireless communication many new applications have been made possible; applications where systems can collaboratively learn and get wiser without human supervision. One potential application is automated monitoring for fault isolation in mobile mechatronic systems such as commercial vehicles. The paper proposes an agent design that is based on uploading software...
متن کاملConcurrent Design of Embedded Control Software
Embedded software design for mechatronic systems is becoming an increasingly time-consuming and error-prone task. In order to cope with the heterogeneity and complexity, a systematic model-driven design approach is needed, where several parts of the system can be designed concurrently. There is however a trade-off between concurrency efficiency and integration efficiency. In this paper, we pres...
متن کاملConceptual Design for Controller software of mechatronic systems
The method and software tool presented here, aims at supporting the development of control software for mechatronic systems. Heterogeneous distributed embedded processors are considered as target hardware. Principles of the method are that the implementation process is a stepwise refinement from control laws to efficient computer code and that all phases are verified by simulation. Simulation i...
متن کاملTowards a Complete Design Method for Embedded Systems Using Predicate/Transition–Nets
In this paper, we present a new approach to embedded system design based on modeling discrete and also continuous system parts with high level Petri–Nets. Our investigations concentrate on a complete design flow, analysis on high level Petri–Nets and their meaning for hardware/software partitioning of real-time embedded systems. The concepts for hybrid modeling of discrete and continuous system...
