A Model-Driven Approach for Developing Self-Adaptive Pervasive Systems

Abstract

Adaptive systems are generally difficult to implement, and their quality depends much on the designer experience or creativity. This paper presents a model driven approach to develop adaptive systems by means of run-time models. Our approach applies techniques from the Software Product Lines (SPLs) to address the different requirements of evolution and involution scenarios in Pervasive Systems. Finally, we show how models drive the adaptation in order to dynamically change the system architecture
