In this paper a new approach for an overall system design is presented. It supports object-oriented system modeling for software components in embedded systems in addition to the well known time-discrete and time-continuous modeling concepts. Our approach supports structural and behavioral modeling with front-end tools and simulation/emulation with back-end tools. The XMI (XML Metadata Exchange) metamodel is used for storing CASE data to a commercial object repository and exchanging CASE data. The CASE tool chain, presented in this paper, supports concurrent engineering with versioning and configuration management.
