摘要
This paper evaluates the suitability of the new Unified Modelling Language (UML) 2.0 for the design and implementation of embedded Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) protocols. UML 2.0 introduces several new features and improvements to semantics, diagram types, and notations of the language. Behaviour in UML 2.0 can be described accurately and precisely, which enables automatic source code (C/C++ for example) generation for creating executable models. A Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol called TUTMAC was designed and implemented with UML 2.0, and integrated into a hardware platform. The implementation with UML 2.0 reached adequate performance for the protocol with time-critical functionality on the target platform.
