Systems, Software and Services Process Improvement
This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 22st EuroSPI conference, held in Ankara, Turkey, in September/October 2015.The 18 revised papers presented together with 9 selected key notes and workshop papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 49 submissions. They are organized in topical sections on SPI themed case studies; SPI approaches in safety-critical domains; SPI in social and organizational issues; software process improvement best practices; models and optimization approaches in SPI; SPI and process assessment; creating environments supporting innovation and improvement; social aspects of SPI: conflicts, games, gamification and other social approaches; risk management and functional safety management.
Challenges and Directions Forward for Dealing with the Complexity of Future Smart Cyber–Physical Systems
A key aspect of cyber-physical systems (CPS) is their potential for integrating information technologies with embedded control systems and physical systems to form new or improved functionalities. CPS thus draws upon advances in many areas. This positioning provides unprecedented opportunities for innovation, both within and across existing domains. However, at the same time, it is commonly understood that we are already stretching the limits of existing methodologies. In embarking towards CPS with such unprecedented capabilities, it becomes essential to improve our understanding of CPS complexity and how we can deal with it. Complexity has many facets, including complexity of the CPS itself...
Model Driven Architecture - Foundations and Applications
The ?fth edition of the European Conference on Model-Driven Architecture Foundations and Applications (ECMDA-FA 2009) was dedicated to furthering the state of knowledge and fostering the industrialization of Model-Driven - chitecture (MDA) and Model-Driven Engineering (MDE). MDA is an initiative proposed by the Object Management Group for platform-generic systems - velopment; MDA is one of a class of approaches under the umbrella of MDE. MDE and MDA promote the use of models in the speci?cation, design, analysis, synthesis, deployment, and evolution of complex software systems. It is a pleasure to be able to introduce the proceedings of ECMDA-FA 2009. ECMDA-FA 2009 addressed various MDA area...
Model Driven Engineering Languages and Systems
The pioneering organizers of the ?rst UML workshop in Mulhouse, France inthe summerof1998couldhardlyhaveanticipatedthat,in littleoveradecade, theirinitiativewouldblossomintotoday’shighlysuccessfulMODELSconference series, the premier annual gathering of researchersand practitioners focusing on a very important new technical discipline: model-based software and system engineering. This expansion is, of course, a direct consequence of the growing signi?cance and success of model-based methods in practice. The conferences have contributed greatly to the heightened interest in the ?eld, attracting much young talent and leading to the gradualemergence of its correspondingscienti?c and engineering foundations. The proceedings from the MODELS conferences are one of the primary references for anyone interested in a more substantive study of the domain. The 12th conference took place in Denver in the USA, October 4–9, 2009 along with numerous satellite workshops and tutorials, as well as several other related scienti?c gatherings. The conference was exceptionally fortunate to have three eminent, invited keynote speakers from industry: Stephen Mellor, Larry Constantine, and Grady Booch.
Reliable Software Technologies - Ada-Europe 2009
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 14th Ada-Europe International Conference on Reliable Software Technologies, Ada-Europe 2009, held in Brest, France, on June 8-12, 2009. The 19 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. Topics of interest to the conference are methods and techniques for software development and maintenance; software architecture; enabling technology; software quality; theory and practice of high-integrity systems; embedded systems; mainstream and emerging applications; ada language and technology; ada and education.
Dependable Computing - EDCC 2021 Workshops
This book constitutes refereed proceedings of the Workshops of the 17th European Dependable Computing Conference, EDCC: Second Worskhop on Dynamic Risk Management for Autonomous Systems, DREAMS 2021, Third Workshop on Dependable Solutions for Intelligent Electricity Distribution Grids, DSOGRI 2021, 13th Workshop on Software Engineering for Resilient Systems, SERENE 2021, held in September 2021. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the workshops were held virtually. The 14 workshop papers presented were thoroughly reviewed and selected from 22 submissions. The workshop papers complement the main conference topics by addressing dependability or security issues in specic application domains or by focussing in specialized topics, such as system resilience.
Graph Layout Support for Model-Driven Engineering
Automatic layout is an important tool for the efficient use of graphical models in a model-driven engineering (MDE) context. Since the 1980s, research on graph layout methods has led to a multitude of different approaches, and several free software libraries for graph layout are available. However, today's practically relevant MDE tools hardly reflect this diversity. This thesis aims to support the use of automatic graph layout in such tools. A special focus is on the requirements of data flow models, where constraints on the positioning of ports and the routing of hyperedges pose additional challenges. These constraints are approached with extensions of the layer-based graph layout method. Furthermore, we discuss an infrastructure for managing collections of layout algorithms, allowing to flexibly specify layout configurations. These concepts are implemented in an open-source project based on Eclipse, an extensible platform that is well-known as a Java IDE and also hosts a large number of MDE tools. The presented contributions allow to integrate high-quality automatic layout into these tools with low effort.
Building Enterprise Systems with ODP
The Reference Model of Open Distributed Processing (RM-ODP) is an international standard that provides a solid basis for describing and building widely distributed systems and applications in a systematic way. It stresses the need to build these systems with evolution in mind by identifying the concerns of major stakeholders and then expressing the design as a series of linked viewpoints. Although RM-ODP has been a standard for more than ten years, many practitioners are still unaware of it. Building Enterprise Systems with ODP: An Introduction to Open Distributed Processing offers a gentle pathway to the essential ideas that constitute ODP and shows how these ideas can be applied when desig...

Model-Based Engineering of Embedded Real-Time Systems
Thetopicof“Model-BasedEngineeringofReal-TimeEmbeddedSystems”brings together a challenging problem domain (real-time embedded systems) and a - lution domain (model-based engineering). It is also at the forefrontof integrated software and systems engineering, as software in this problem domain is an essential tool for system implementation and integration. Today, real-time - bedded software plays a crucial role in most advanced technical systems such as airplanes, mobile phones, and cars, and has become the main driver and - cilitator for innovation. Development, evolution, veri?cation, con?guration, and maintenance of embedded and distributed software nowadays are often serious challenges...
