A design method for implementing specifications including control in distributed embedded systems

Because a real-time system combines control and data processing designers specify it using different languages. Such systems are often distributed and the problem is to obtain a distributed implementation from these distinct specifications. Indeed, the method based on separated code generation and manual distribution leads to inconsistent implementations. We propose to unify all these specifications into a unique one. The resulting specification is a conditioned data flow graph which exhibits the potential parallelism necessary to an efficient use of distributed resources. Finally, we use the SynDEx software in order to automatically produce a distributed and consistent implementation from the resulting specification
