Heterogeneous Reactive Systems Modeling and Correct-by-Construction Deployment

We propose a mathematical framework to deal with the composition of heterogeneous reactive systems. Our theory allows to establish theorems, from which design techniques can be derived. We illustrate this by two cases:  the deployment of synchronous designs over GALS architectures, and  the deployment of synchronous designs over the so-called Loosely Time-Triggered Architectures.
