Nowadays, adaptive middleware plays an important role in the design of applications in ubiquitous and ambient computing. Currently most of these systems manage the adaptation at the middleware intermediary layer. Dynamic adaptive middleware are then decomposed into two levels : a first one to simplify the development of distributed systems using devices, a second one to perform dynamic adaptations within the first level. In this paper we consider component-based middleware and a corresponding compositional adaptation. Indeed, the composition often involves conflicts between concurrent adaptations. Thus we study how to maintain consistency of the application in spite of changes of critical components and conflicts that may appear when we compose some component assemblies. Relying on formal methods, we provide a well defined representation of component behaviors. In such a setting, model checking techniques are applied to ensure that concurrent access does not violate expected and acceptable behaviors of critical components.
