Abstract

The conception and design of Resource Constrained Embedded Systems is an inherently complex endeavor. In particular, non-functional requirements from security, dependability and variability are exacerbating this complexity. Recent times have seen a paradigm shift in terms of design through the combination of multiple software engineering paradigms together, namely, Model Driven Engineering and Software Product Line Engineering. Such paradigm shift is changing the way systems are developed nowadays, reducing development time significantly. Embedded systems are a case in point where a range of products for assorted domains such as energy, transportation, automotive, and so on are conceived as a family. However, most of the work so far has been focused on functional parts. The purpose of this talk is to foster some discussion during the workshop on the issues that need to be faced for these techniques to be applicable for Resource Constrained Embedded Systems for which security and dependability are primary requirements.
