Abstract

The GENESYS (Generic Embedded System) project is a European research project that aims to develop a cross-domain architecture for embedded systems. The requirements and constraints for such an architecture are documented in the ARTEMIS strategic research agenda in the form of seven key challenges. This paper presents the architectural style of GENESYS by listing the key architectural principles, such as: strict component orientation, separation of computation from communication, availability of a common time, hierarchical system structure, adherence to message passing, state awareness, fault isolation and integrated resource manage-ment. This paper explains how these architectural principles contribute to solve the seven key challenges in the ARTEMIS strategic research agenda.
