Abstract

Embedded control applications have become increasingly network-centric over the last few years. Inexpensive embedded hardware and the availability of pervasive networking infrastructure and standards have created a rapidly growing market place for distributed embedded control applications. Software construction for these applications should be inexpensive as well in order to satisfy mass-market demands. In this chapter, we present results from an industrial-driven collaborative project with the purpose of researching component-based software engineering technologies for mass-market network-centric embedded control applications. This project has lead to the development and refinement of several tools in support of component-based software development. We describe these tools along with their underlying concepts and our experiences in using them.
