Challenges in the engineering of self-adaptive software have been recently discussed and summarized in a seminal research road map. Following it, we focus on requirements engineer...
In this paper, we present our position and experience on integrating formal methods with the Model-driven Engineering (MDE) approach to software development. Both these two approa...
A key difficulty in the maintenance and evolution of complex software systems is to recognize and understand the implicit dependencies that define contracts that must be respecte...
