Abstract

The widespread use of embedded systems mandates a rigorous engineering approach towards embedded software development, i.e. model-based design of embedded software. The paper presents design models of reusable and reconfigurable state machines that have been conceived in the context of the COMDES framework and in particular – the State Logic Controller and the Hybrid State Logic Controller, whose principles of operation are presented in the paper. The latter has been instrumental in developing a reconfigurable executable component, i.e. a function block of class State Machine, which can be used to implement a broad range of embedded applications such as sequential, continuous and hybrid control systems, as well as complex systems specified with hierarchical and concurrent state machines.
