As increasingly more complex embedded systems are
being considered for design, their design and validation is
proving a Herculean task. Innovative applications demand
stringent requirements, necessitating improvements in
technologies and system design methodologies. It is where
simulation and modeling come in to picture. Modern embedded
system design philosophy is heavily dependent on simulation.
Simulation provides a means to model an embedded system,
perform experiments with the model, test, and evaluate the
designs prior to committing to implementation, thus allowing
design flaws to be detected and corrected early in the design
process. In this paper, the design for retention tank of Modular
Controller Discharge System (MCDS) is proposed which is a
modernized toilet system for trains to avoid the spillage at
undesired places or at railway platforms. Speed sensors help to
dump the waste at a suitable distance from the railway station.
Intermediate tank is used under the toilet seat and it is designed
using simulation. A Programmable Logic Controller is used to
control the action of storage tank.
