Abstract :
This work reports from a project that transposed the HRT-HOOD design method and development process onto a tailored profile of the UML meta-model. HRT-HOOD has methodological strengths, which make it apt for component-based design of hard real-time systems. The UML meta-model is so flexible and comprehensive that it can express and support specific design methods and processes, without leaning towards any in particular. This work discusses technical and methodological choices made in the mapping and reviews them in the light of a pair of case studies.
