One of the possible ways leading to speed-up of the software development process
on embedded systems can be an application of formal-method-based development
approaches. These techniques assure fast, error-free and intuitive way of
creation of software applications
which can be highly optimized and also in many cases platform and/or programming
language-independent. Nowadays, these techniques are widely used in modern RAD
IDEs designed for desktop computers, but are still missing in embedded systems
development environments.
The contribution shows that FSMs can be successfully used for generation of
platform-independent source code and software applications running on various
types of target MCUs can be built from it. It also deals with basic
code-generation and optimization concepts and algorithms used among this software
development approach.
