Abstract

Distributed real-time systems are gaining more and more ground in the area of industrial, commercial and military applications. Since most of these systems operate in safety critical environments, attention has to be directed (during design process) towards correctness and timeliness. The project Versatile Timing Analyzer (VTA) is engaged in the research area of monitoring distributed real-time systems. One part of this project deals with the problem of finding efficient mechanisms for the specification of system evaluation measurement methods. As a conclusion of our work this paper presents the concept and implementation of an object-oriented specification language for monitoring event-based (real-time) systems, called Gold Mine.
