Realtime and embedded systems are in widespread use in the modern world. From the microprocessor controller in a camera, through 'smart' traffic lights and production control systems, to large defense systems, computer technology is increasingly a part of systems that control and respond to their environments in realtime. As the technology has improved, we have come to rely on these systems more and more we have even put our lives in their hands. Airplanes, biomedical accelerators, nuclear power plants, and the like all depend on realtime control to operate safely. A failure in a control system, such as not responding correctly to faults in the environment, could endanger many lives.Unfortunately, there is a tendency for developers to focuse too heavily on the intrcacies of the engineering and computer technology, to the detriment of understanding the realworld problem at hand. At best, this wastes time and resouces and at worst it is dangerous in light of the lifecritical nature of today's systems. This misplaced focus can result at least partly from the lack of a comprehensive set of modeling tools and techniques fitted to the realtime development environment. This book provides the tools and techniques needed for visualizing and verifying the operation of a realtime system prior to construction, and demonstrates their usefulness.
