1 Introduction
The document describes informally the functionality of Slime, a graphical
tool for editing and analyzing SFCs (Sequential
function charts modeling environment).
One crucial part of the implementation, around which most of the rest has
been arranged, is the abstract syntax (cf.
Section A)/
The rest of the documents sketches the parts of the project, each
implemented by one package of the project. Especially, we describe
in first approximation
-
the functionality offered by each package, and
- the functionality expected from other packages.
As we intend to start early with the integration, the
required methods should be provided rather quickly without being (fully)
implemented (i.e., as stubs). See also the time-line of the
project.
We provide as starting point a first implementation of the abstract syntax
(cf. Section A) and a small textual printer in the
utilities package.
If from the perspective of a package, changes or extensions seem necessary
or desirable as far as the abstract syntax is concerned, the wish should be
uttered and justified as early as possible to all participants (and then
potentially implemented by us or the requester, if everyone agrees).
