Abstract

In this paper a new approach for an overall system design is presented. It supports object-oriented system modeling for software components in embedded systems in addition to the well known time-discrete and time-continuous modeling concepts. Our approach supports structural and behavioral modeling with front-end tools and simulation/emulation with back-end tools. The XMI (XML Meta-data Exchange) metamodel is used for storing CASE data to a commercial object repository and exchanging CASE data. The CASE tool chain, presented in this paper, supports concurrent engineering with versioning and configuration management. Finally we discuss the suitability of XMI for concurrent engineering using the Unified Modeling Language notation for an overall system design cycle
