Abstract: The program system SDL-machine outlined aims at supporting the correct design of complex and complicated distributed software as in the telecommunication domain. SDL-machine primarily supports the design-accompanied analysis of systems specified in the standardized formal language SDL. The SDL-machine contains in its core a graphical editor, a compiler generating optionally C-code for simulation, Petri net analysis and virtual target execution, a run time system for execution of SDL-specifications and a database interface. The SDL-machine is available for MS-DOS and UNIX.
Keywords: telecommunication; net analysis; UNIX; MS-DOS; net tool.
