Abstract
In this paper, we present results ensuring the correct compositionality of the components (named capsules in UML-RT terminology) of a real-time system at different specification stages using the methodological framework called MEDISTAM-RT, which guarantees the temporal consistency and safe (deadlock free) communication between capsules. This allows the compositional verification of systems designed with this methodology, in such a way that the verification of a complete real–time system can be reduced to the verification of its smallest capsules.
