Abstract :
The work presented here is on a methodology for design of hard real-time embedded control software for robots, i.e. mechatronic products. The behavior of the total robot system (machine, control, software and I/O) is relevant, because the dynamics of the machine influences the robot software. Therefore, we use two appropriate Models of Computation, which represent continuous-time equations for the machine / robot part, and discrete event / discrete time equations for the control software part.
