Abstract

In this study, a specification technique with safety assertions, liveness assertions, and real-time APIs is suggested to help developers to specify and prototype a real-time concurrent system with a Java applet. The platform independence of Java class files has made Java a convenient tool for developers and customers to elicit the requirements of a target system. The processor of the suggested specification language generates the skeletal Java classes reflecting safety and liveness assertions with Java’s exception handling feature, and soft real-time constraints in the form of APIs. The processor inserts real time APIs into generated skeletal Java classes, which are implemented with Java multithreading without modifying the standard Java syntax.
