Abstract :
This paper presents the object-oriented platform-based design process for embedded real-time systems (SEEP). More specifically, it includes a case study to highlight the main design steps proposed by SEEP. Details regarding embedded system modeling and its transition to the programming level are presented. Moreover, it describes the embedded system generation and provides data obtained from the hardware synthesis and the application execution. Moreover, it discusses how projects can be optimized according to requirements priorities. It finishes by highlighting the main advantage of SEEP in comparison to other existing methodologies for embedded systems design
