MILAN: A Model Based Integrated Simulation Framework for Design of Embedded Systems

We present MILAN, a model based extensible framework that facilitates rapid, multigranular performance evaluation of a large class of embedded systems, by seamlessly integrating different widely used simulators in to a unified environment. MILAN provides a formal paradigm for specification of structural and behavioral aspects of embedded systems, an integrated model-based approach, and a unified software environment for system design and simulation. This paper provides an overview of MILAN, discusses the Model Integrated Computing philosophy, and illustrates the high-level modeling concepts being developed in the MILAN project for embedded systems design and evaluation.
