An Approach to Automatic Code Generation for Safety-Critical Systems

Michael W. Whalen, Mats Per Erik Heimdahl

Abstract

Automated translation, or code generation, of a formal requirements model to production code can alleviate many of the problems associated with design and implementation. In this paper, we outline the requirements of such code generation to obtain a high level of confidence in the correctness of the translation process. We then describe a translator for a state-based modeling language called RSML (Requirements Specification Modeling Language) that largely meets these requirements.
