Title
A few open problems and solutions for software technologies for dependable distributed systems.
Abstract
Software technologies are of paramount importance in the current and upcoming systems. In certain application domains, their design has to fit a difficult equation involving not only the expected functionality, but also broader dependable characteristics. Functional and non-functional characteristics have to adhere to requirements such as openness, adaptation, device heterogeneity, energy, or footprint. In this paper, we present a few challenges in some selected areas around the theme of software technologies for dependable distributed systems. These selected areas are real-time, security in software forensics, and adaptation for cyber-physical systems from the perspective of the middleware. This serves as a context for the special issue in which this paper is contained, that gathers a set of valuable contributions in topics related to these domains. Lastly, we present a set of contributions that are part of this special issue that approach the problem from different perspectives.
