Abstract

This paper describes automation methods for device driver development in IP-based embedded systems in order to achieve high reliability, productivity, reusability and fast time to market. We formally specify device behaviors using event driven finite state machines, communication channels, declaratively described rules, constraints and synthesis patterns. A driver is synthesized from this specification for a virtual environment that is platform (processor, operating system and other hardware) independent. The virtual environment is mapped to a specific platform to complete the driver implementation. The illustrative application of our approach for a USB device driver in Linux demonstrates improved productivity and reusability.
