Title
Compiling ARGOS into Boolean Equations
Abstract
In most imperative synchronous languages (Esterel, Argos, Statecharts,...), the semantics of the control structures may be conveniently described as compositions of Mealy machines. This constitutes the usual formal semantics of Argos, for instance, where basic components are Mealy machines. On the other hand, the compilation process should not be based upon an explicit generation of the Mealy machine that represents the behaviour of the whole program, because this machine may have a very large number of states. Hence we try to perform a symbolic compilation into a Mealy machine implicitly represented by a set of Boolean equations.
