Formal Logic Design of Reprogrammable Controllers

  • Chapter
Design of Embedded Control Systems

Abstract

The goal of the paper is to present a formal, rigorous approach to the design of logic controllers, which are implemented as independent control units or as central control parts inside modern reconfigurable microsystems. A discrete model of a dedicated digital system is derived from the control interpreted Petri net behavioral specification and considered as a modular concurrent state machine. After hierarchical and distributed local state encoding, an equivalent symbolic description of a sequential system is reflected in field programmable logic by means of commercial CAD tools. The desired behavior of the designed reprogrammable logic controller can be validated by simulation in a VHDL environment.
