  • Abstract
    The Temporal Agent Model (TAM) is a widespectrum development language for real-time systems. In TAM, limited resources are modelled by deriving release times and absolute deadlines from weakest precondition predicate transformers. The language syntax is described, a refinement calculus is presented and a number of examples are discussed. Our development method does not address issues such as schedulability and process allocation.
