Is is implemented in a CASE tool prototype based on the Real-time Object Oriented Modeling methodology. All vital parts of HyROOM's operational simulation semantics are mapped into HyCharts, a formal framework for hybrid systems. All essential concepts are discussed along the lines of parts of an industrial case study, a wire stretching plant. The semantics is the basis for validation and refinement techniques.enApproaching a discrete-continuous UML: Tool support and formalizationText/Conference Paper1617-5468
