Abstract

The design of embedded controllers is about developing control algorithms and their implementation satisfying tight constraints on performance and cost. To reduce design time and implementation cost, we propose a methodology based on the principles of platform-based design. The design process is decomposed into a sequence of steps that involve different levels of abstraction (platforms) related by a refinement relation. The design method is exemplified by applying it to the design of an automotive engine controller.
