Model-Based Engineering of Embedded Systems

More about the book

Embedded systems are crucial in areas where human control is impractical. However, developing these systems is increasingly complex due to heightened system intricacies, tighter integration, safety demands, real-time requirements, and cost reduction pressures. This book offers a thorough overview of the Software Platform Embedded Systems (SPES) modeling framework, showcasing its relevance across various industries, including automation, automotive, avionics, energy, and healthcare. In SPES 2020, twenty-one academic and industry partners collaborated to create and assess a modeling framework that embodies the latest advancements in embedded systems engineering. The book is organized into four parts: Part I discusses the current state of embedded systems development and model-based engineering, highlighting key challenges across different domains. Part II details the SPES modeling framework itself. Part III outlines the validation processes undertaken to ensure the framework meets the previously identified requirements. Finally, Part IV summarizes the results achieved and suggests directions for future research. This book primarily targets professionals involved in embedded systems development, while also serving as a valuable resource for researchers seeking insights into contemporary requirements and solutions in the field.
