ABSTRACT
Design of embedded systems must be based on formal representations so that the synthesis process can be carried out systematically. We present PRES, a Petri net based model suited to embedded systems. It can represent several levels of detail using the feature of hierarchical decomposition. This model also includes an explicit notion of time. In PRES tokens hold information and transitions, when fired, perform transformation of data. Concurrency and sequential behavior might be naturally represented in PRES. The representation is formally defined and an example explains different concepts and the semantics of the model.
