Overview of the Ptolemy Project
ABSTRACT
The Ptolemy project studies heterogeneous modeling and design of
concurrent systems. The focus is on embedded systems, particularly
those that mix technologies, including for example analog and digital
electronics, hardware and software, and electronics and mechanical
devices (including MEMS, microelectromechanical systems). The focus is
also on systems that are complex in the sense that they mix widely
different operations, such as signal processing, feedback control,
sequential decision making, and user interfaces.
