Automatic specification of feasible Control Tasks in Benchmark Production Systems

This paper deals with automatic refinement-based specifications of feasible Control Tasks in Embedded Control Systems. By considering the Plant architecture, we model at first time the system with an abstract model according to the Net Condition Event System formalism and we automatically refine thereafter this model in different steps to define and specify Control Tasks that have to be checked in each step. This approach optimizes the development cost of complex Embedded Systems and it is applied on two Benchmark Production Systems FESTO and EnAS available in our research laboratory to prove its benefits.
