Abstract

Every day, our society becomes more dependent on complex software systems with high availability requirements, such as those present in telecommunications, air traffic control, power plants and distribution lines, among others. In order to facilitate the task of maintaining and evolving such systems, dynamic software architecture infrastructures have recently been in the research agenda. However, complexity and dynamic evolution of dependable systems bring some challenges for verification. Some of these challenges are associated to modifications in the set of properties being verified and also in the types of analysis being performed during system operation. In this work, we present a multiple specification and architectural-based approach for software monitoring that allows the adaptation of analysis tasks in order to properly handle the challenges mentioned above.
