Abstract

As we argued before, model-based design (MBD) has been widely used in the practice of embedded system design, and various MBD approaches have been proposed, which can be classified into two paradigms, a simulation-based informal one such as or a verification-based formal one like. It is evident that informal design of embedded systems has a low initial cost and is intuitively appealing, because simulations give results early on, but it cannot fully guarantee the correctness and reliability of the system to be developed; in contrast, the correctness and reliability of the system can be thoroughly investigated with formal design, but the cost is higher and it requires specialized skills. Therefore, it is desirable to provide a two-way path between formal and informal approaches for a designer.
