From applications, to models and to embedded system code: a modeling approach in action

Embedded systems are becoming more and more popular in current digital era. In order to improve the development efficiency, a framework of Object-Oriented (OO) program on embedded system is designed in this research. UML modeling language is adopted to construct the model of embedded system. By using UML, programmers can understand the system structure easily and improve the system design. This will reduce the whole development time. As an example, “Remote Bluetooth Communication System” was developed based on the proposed framework. It shows that we can develop two kinds of Micro Control Unit (MCU) in a very short time. Meanwhile the advantages of UML modeling language are obvious that it can help to develop embedded systems correctly and rapidly
