Increasing complexity of real-time systems, and demands for enabling their configurability and tailorability are strong motivations for applying new software engineering principle...
The paper introduces a method to model embedded dependability-critical systems as AND-composition of Guarded Statecharts which are special UMLstatecharts. With Guarded Statecharts...
Service oriented architecture (SOA) design principles are increasingly being adopted to develop distributed real-time and embedded (DRE) systems, such as avionics mission computin...
This paper presents a component model for building distributed applications with fault-tolerance requirements. The AFT-CCM model selects the configuration of replicated services d...
Component-based software structuring principles are now commonly and successfully applied at the application level; but componentisation is far less established when it comes to b...
