A Model Driven Approach for the Development of Fine-Grain Self-Adaptive Multitask and Networked RTE Systems

Scaling the applications output quality in order to meet constraints and keep preserving NFPs is an important adaptation technique in modern embedded systems. In this paper, we propose a model driven framework for the modeling, NFPs verification and application reconfiguration of multitask networked RTE systems. We use the UML standard and an extension of the MARTE profile for the system high level specification. Then we profit from the MDE capabilities to map system models to a verification and reconfiguration platform. We illustrate the effectiveness of our approach using a RTE system running CPU and network bandwidth intensive multimedia applications.
