This work introduces an approach to adding timing information to UML diagrams for modeling embedded systems. In order to perform automated formal analysis of these UML diagrams with timing information, we extend a previously developed UML formalization framework to provide Promela semantics for the timing elements of the UML diagrams. The paper describes the application of our approach to an electronically controlled steering system obtained from one of our industrial collaborators.
