Abstract

LOTOS is a Formal Description Technique (FDT) that has a strong and obscure textual algebraic notation that is difficult in readability. We have developed a tool that allows to design visual specifications and generate the LOTOS equivalent code. With this tool a lot of time is saved in the specification phase of system simulation.
