Abstract

Complexity in the application domains of software-intensive systems is continuously growing due to at least two reasons. Firstly, technical complexity grows as hardware and software have to interact in individual or even communicating embedded systems. Secondly, social complexity grows as the process organizations of the 1990's are gradually being replaced by loosely coupled networks of actors, often organized around community platforms. In this chapter, we discuss recent solution attempts for these two issues individually, and end with speculating about their possible future interaction.
