Design tools for hybrid control systems

Abstract

Hybrid systems exhibit a variety of discrete and continuous behaviour. Extensions to the Development Framework, an environment for real-time control system design, are described here. These extensions allow the management of discrete events such as mode switching. The Framework provides a highly automated path from a control engineering specification to a distributed system implementation. Simulink, an extension to Matlab, is used to specify control laws, and a statecharts tool, Statemate, is used to specify and model discrete-state components. The design phase of the Development Framework supports the integration of the two sets of specification. The translation of statecharts to dataflow notations is described using an example system which was implemented using the Development Framework. General translation rules are also presented.
