## Key findings

- Successful application to various examples
- Enables schedulability checking and timing constraint inference
- Bridges graphical models with formal verification tools

## Abstract

Time4sys is a formalism developed by Thales, realizing a graphical specification for real-time systems. However, this formalism does not allow to perform formal analyses for real-time systems. So a translation of this tool to a formalism equipped with a formal semantics is needed. We present here Time4sys2imi, a tool translating Time4sys models into parametric timed automata in the input language of IMITATOR. This translation allows not only to check the schedulability of real-time systems, but also to infer some timing constraints (e.g., deadlines, offsets) guaranteeing schedulability. We successfully applied Time4sys2imi to various examples.
