CEDER-a software development method for the construction of embedded dedicated real-time systems

CEDER, a development method for the construction of embedded systems where special attention has been given to the timing constraints often imposed on such systems, is described. The method, unlike other software development methods, gives the designer concise advice on the structuring of the system. In the CEDER project the methodology has been refined for industrial use, and tool support is being supplied. An overview of the tools under development is presented.<
