Abstract

The Configuration/Management Application Programming Interface (CMAPI) is a vendor-specific API and middleware- layer for configuration and management of components in embedded systems. CMAPI is used by TietoEnator Den- mark in the implementation of a controller for the Generic Access Network (GAN) architecture. This paper presents a hierarchical Coloured Petri Net model of CMAPI that was developed in the process of applying Coloured Petri Nets and CPN Tools for the specification of the GAN controller.
