Abstract

Modern distributed embedded systems are reaching an extreme complexity which is very hard to master with traditional methods. Particularly the need for these systems to adapt their behavior autonomously at runtime to changing conditions is a demanding challenge. Since most industrial application domains of distributed embedded systems have high demands on reliability and safety, we need a dependable self-adaptation mechanism to apply adaptation successfully in these domains. Therefore, we propose a concept to guarantee the proper system behavior and a mechanism which preserves the predefined functional and non-functional requirements of the system.
