Accessing Databases within Esterel

pdf-format:

Abstract

A current limitation of the Esterel language for reactive-systems
design is its lack of support for accessing databases. This talk
presents the results of a summer student project which investigated
a way of integrating databases and Esterel by providing an API for
database use inside Esterel.

A case study, involving a warehouse storage system built using Lego
Mindstorms robotics kits, demonstrates the utility of the API. This
system employs an Esterel-programmed robot whose task it is to collect
various items from a customer's order and assemble them in one place.
To do so, the robot accesses customer-order data and floor-plan data
stored in a database.
