Abstract

This paper describes basic principles of MSC and SDL languages which are formalism for description of interactions among components in some system. Informal specification of systems contributes to view these systems as a black box. Behavior of each system is seems as a whole. On the other side, formal specification and description tend to reflect internal structures of the system. MSC and SDL give different views of the same system. This paper compares characteristics of MSC and SDL languages. The reactive system often consists of non-terminal and nondeterministic processes, so we can use High Level MSC, which is composed from single MSCs to specify the system. .
