Model Driven Engineering for Distributed Real-Time Embedded Systems / Edition 1

by Sebastien Gerard, Jean-Philippe Babau, Jöel Champeau

Overview

Model-based development methods, and supporting technologies, can provide the techniques and tools needed to address the dilemma between reducing system development costs and time, and developing increasingly complex systems. The Model Driven Architecture (MDA) initiative of the Object Management Group (OMG) is concerned with the development of standards and technologies that enable and support model-based system development. The aim of this book is to provide the information needed to understand and apply MDE (including MDA) approaches to the development of embedded systems. Chapters, written by experts from academia and industry, cover topics relating to MDE practices and methods, as well as emerging MDE technologies. Much of the writing is based on the presentations given at the Summer School 'MDE for Embedded Systems' held at Brest, France, in September 2004.
