Embedded Systems in Avionics and the SACRES Approach

  • Conference paper

Abstract

This paper presents an industrial experiment in avionics of the programming environment SILDEX based on the synchronous model, and an approach to the design and implementation of such safety critical embedded systems, developped in the framework of the Esprit project SACRES. The goal of the project is to integrate into a complete and unified environment, around the synchronous models technology, a variety of specification tools such as STATEMATE, SILDEX, TIMING DIAGRAMS and tools for verification, code generation and validation of the code produced.

The work described in the article is partly funded by tje CEC as Esprit Project Ep 20897 SACRES (SAfety CRitical En\mbedde Systems: frm requirements to system architecture).
