DYANA: HLA-based distributed real-time embedded systems simulation tool

In this paper we present DYANA, an HLA-based hardware-in-the-loop simulation tool. This tool is used for distributed Real-Time Embedded Systems (RTES) simulation. RTES models are described by Unified Modeling Language (UML) statechart diagrams. The statechart diagram is transformed into HLA-based Simulation Model (HSM). After translation into HSM we use CERTI as the simulation runtime. The statechart diagram is also transformed into a Network of Timed Automata (NTA). After translation into NTA we use UPPAAL for RTES model verification.
