<br>
Distributed systems research covers a wide spectrum of applications
ranging across embedded real/time systems, commercial transaction
systems, transportation systems, and military/space systems. Such
systems raise several issues not found in single processor systems.
The main difficulty arises when considering dependability, security,
adaptability and resources constrained computing. This area
requires computing systems to run software in an efficient and
trustworthy way. That is, in order to be able to design complex
architectures in reasonable time, novel and effective design
methodologies are needed to automatically build applications from
high-level descriptions to take into account what needs to be
deployed on hardware. To remedy this weakness, combining both model
and component seems to be a very promising cocktail for building
solutions to this problem.<br>
<br>
The introduction of the component approach in the development of
embedded systems allows facilitating their design by building
through an assembly of existing components. Indeed, this approach
provides a clear separation between the specification and
implementation of components. Note however that in the context of
component software, distributed architecture is significantly more
demanding than that of traditional monolithic integrated solution.
Model-driven engineering provides a very useful contribution for the
design of distributed systems since it bridges the gap between
design issues and implementation concerns. It helps the designer to
concentrate on application structure and required behavior and it
permits us to specify in a separate way non-functional requirements
such as underlying execution infrastructure/middleware,
dependability and reconfiguration issues that are very important to
guide the implementation process.<br>
<br>
The main focus of DANCE is on the topic of making design and
implementation expert knowledge available to distributed real time
embedded systems (DRTES) engineering processes. Special emphasis
will be devoted to promote discussion and interaction between
researchers and practitioners focused on the particularly
challenging task to efficiently integrate dependability and
reconfiguration solutions within the restricted available design
space and time. Furthermore, one important focus is on the potential
benefits of the combination of model- driven engineering with
languages and representation of component engineering solutions.
The workshop aims to bring together researchers from various fields
involved in the development and deployment of component in embedded
systems with a particular focus on the transfer of results from
fundamental research to the industrial development of energy,
resource and time constrained applications. The exchange of
concepts, prototypes, research ideas, and other results which
contribute to the academic arena and also benefit business and
industrial communities, is of particular interest. Some of the
topics that we seek to include in the workshop are related to the
development of models and tools to support the inclusion of energy,
resource and time constraints within dependability and
reconfiguration requirements issues into the embedded systems
engineering process.<br>
<br>
The session topics include but are not limited to:<br>
<br>
- Engineering of component based DRTES:<br>
. Specification of distributed architecture for model driven
development process<br>
. Architecture and execution support design <br>
. Specification of distributed architecture using new programming
paradigms<br>
. Description languages, Patterns, Meta- modeling, Multi- modeling,
UML Profiles, DSLs, …<br>
<br>
- Dependability and reconfiguration with energy, resource and time
constraints:<br>
. Distributed adaptive and self-adaptive softwares for DRTES
applications with constraints<br>
. Reconfiguration and dependability requirements specification
