Embedded systems are rapidly growing in size, complexity, distribution, and heterogeneity. As a result, the traditional practice of developing one-off embedded applications that a...
Abstract. Evolutionary hardware design reveals the potential to provide autonomous systems with self-adaptation properties. We first outline an architectural concept for an intrins...
Maintenance and evolution of complex software systems (such as large telecom embedded devices) involve activities such as reverse engineering (RE) and software visualization. Alth...
To support rapid software evolution, it is desirable to construct software systems from reusable components. In this approach, the architecture of a system is described as a collec...
Cognitive science emphasizes the strength of visual formalisms for human learning and problem solving. In software engineering, a clear, visual presentation of a system's arc...
