Abstract
A description is given of the development of a toolset that supports the specification and design of large real-time systems. The starting point is the evolution of a method suitable for use in practical environments: for example, in the specification of telecommunication systems. The characteristics that are required of a good specification method for real-time systems are discussed and a method based on the CCITT SDL notation is described which aims to satisfy these characteristics. The component parts in the toolset to support this method are described
