Abstract :
An integrated design concept that focuses on the correctness of concurrent controllers is presented. This approach is based on the specification of concurrent tasks with the aid of structured flow charts. A new formal proceeding for the verification of the correct behavior is introduced. Algorithms reduce the verification process to a polynomial amount of computational effort. The method can be applied even for the design of large systems
