Abstract
The paper introduces a formal definition of inheritance, which is a cardinal concept in object-oriented software, for dynamical systems. The proposed definition exploits the coalgebraic description of software artifacts to provide a connection between the behavioral approach for modeling dynamical systems and the object-oriented approach for software modeling and design. This definition allows to apply the design by extension methodology, widely used in software engineering, to the design of components of manufacturing systems
