Abstract

Model-Driven Software Engineering (MDSE) is a promising approach for the development of applications, and has been well adopted in the embedded applications domain in recent years. Wireless Sensor Actuator Networks consisting of resource constrained hardware and platformspecific operating system is one application area where the advantages of MDSE can be exploited. Code-generation is an integral part of MDSE, and using a multi-platform code generator as a part of the approach has several advantages. Due to the automated code-generation, it is possible to obtain time reduction and prevent errors induced due to manual translations. With the use of formal semantics in the modeling approach, we can further ensure the correctness of the source model by means of verification. Also, with the use of network simulators and formal modeling tools, we obtain a verified and validated model to be used as a basis for code-generation. The aim is to build protocols with shorter design to implementation time and efforts, along with higher confidence in the protocol designed.
