Lack of resources is a challenge for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in implementing an IT-based system to facilitate more efficient business decisions and expanding the market. A community system based on service-oriented architecture…
The cutting edge in systems development today is in the area of "systems of systems" (SoS) large networks of inter-related systems that are developed and managed separately, but that also perform collective activities. Such large systems…
Global IoT services (GIoTS) are combining locally available IoT resources with Cloud-based services. They are targeting world-wide services. GIoTS require interoperability between the locally installed heterogeneous IoT systems. Semantic…
Real-Time availability of information is of most importance in large scale distributed interactive simulation in network-centric communication. Information generated from multiple federates must be distributed and made available to…
The aim of this paper is to propose a rigorous and complete design framework for complex system based on system engineering (SE) principles. The SE standard EIA-632 is used to guide the approach. Within this framework, two aspects are…
The Web is becoming more and more a wide software framework on which each one can compose and use contents, software applications and services. It can offer adequate computational resources to manage the complexity implied by the use of the…
Modeling and simulation of complex systems is key to explore systems dynamics. Many scientific approaches were developed to represent dynamic structure systems but most of these approaches are efficient for some kinds of systems and…
The nature of Systems of Systems (SoSs), large complex systems composed of independent, geographically distributed and continuously evolving constituent systems, means that faults are unavoidable. Previous work on defining contractual…
In the paper by W. Dai et al. (IEEE Trans. On Industrial Informatics, vol. 11, no. 3, pp. 771-781, June 2015), a formal model is described for the application of SOA in the distributed automation domain in order to achieve flexible…
The DevOps paradigm is taking over software development systems, helping businesses increase efficiency, accelerate production, and adapt quickly to market changes. However, adopting these principles can be challenging. Practitioners often…
Here, we present the concept of an open virtual prototyping framework for maritime systems and operations that enables its users to develop re-usable component or subsystem models, and combine them in full-system simulations for…
Companies adopt agile methodologies and DevOps to facilitate efficient development and deployment of software-intensive products. This, in turn, introduces challenges in relation to security standard compliance traditionally following a…
Exhaustive formal verification for systems of systems (SoS) is impractical and cannot be applied on a large scale. In this paper we propose to use statistical model checking for efficient verification of SoS. We address three relevant…
At present organizations try to achieve competitive advantages using information technology (IT). Organizations not only use Information technology to manage their internal operations but also to collaborate with their customers and…
Simulation is a well established what-if scenario analysis tool in Operational Research (OR). While traditionally Discrete Event Simulation (DES) and System Dynamics Simulation (SDS) are the predominant simulation techniques in OR, a new…
Functional aspects as well as the influence of integration technology on the system behavior have to be considered in the 3D integration design process of micro systems. Therefore, information from different physical domains has to be…
Context: Ubiquitous devices and pervasive environments are in permanent interaction in people's daily lives. In today's hyper-connected environments, it is necessary for these devices to interact with each other, transparently to the users.…
Nowadays, universities and companies have a huge need for simulation and modelling methodologies. In the particular case of traffic and transportation, making physical modifications to the real traffic networks could be highly expensive,…
The embedding of self-organizing inter-agent processes in distributed software applications enables the decentralized coordination system elements, solely based on concerted, localized interactions. The separation and encapsulation of the…
This is a manifesto for DEMoS, which is a Distributed Embedded Modular System, but also a manifesto addressing the need for more inter-/cross-disciplinary mastery of working knowledge related to installing this class of systems in the real…
