We developed XVCL (XML-based Variant Configuration Language), a method and tool for product lines, to facilitate handling variants in reusable software assets (such as architectur...
Embedded systems must be cost-effective. This imposes strict requirements on the resource consumption of their applications. It is therefore desirable to be able to determine the ...
As complexity of real-time embedded software grows, it is desirable to use formal verification techniques to achieve a high level of assurance. We discuss application of model-ch...
Abstract. We present a technique for designing reconfiguration controllers in the Fractal component-based framework. We obtain discrete control loops that automatically enforce saf...
Building software systems out of pre-fabricated components is a very attractive vision. Distributed Component Platforms (DCP) and their visual development environments bring this v...
