ABSTRACT
Embedded control systems require a high degree of reliability and determinism. However, the costs of designing and testing these control systems can be very high because of application complexity and stringent performance requirements. In addition, reducing time-to-market for product development is essential for many companies. For researchers, the use of high-level software tools in a unified environment can abstract away many implementation details. This facilitates the rapid investigation of advanced algorithms and control approaches on real-world systems.
