In this paper we present the EARS-CTRL tool forsynthesizing and validating controller software for embeddedsystems. EARS-CTRL has as starting point requirements writtenin (English) natural language, more specifically in the EARS(Easy Approach to Requirements Syntax) language invented atRolls-Royce and currently in use at numerous organizationsaround the world. After expressing the requirements in English,the requirements engineer can produce the controller code atthe press of a button. EARS-CTRL then provides facilitiesfor validating the generated controller that allow step-by-stepsimulation or test-case generation using MATLAB Simulink.
