Several development approaches have been proposed to handle the growing complexity of
software system design. The most popular methods use models as the main artifacts to …

Safety-critical systems require a high level of safety and integrity. Therefore, generating such
systems involves specific software building processes. Many domains are not traditionally …

Security pattern-based system and software engineering (PBSE) approaches aim at building
secure software and systems by capturing and reusing artifacts that encapsulate security …

Securing critical systems such as Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) is an important feature
especially when it comes to critical transmitted data in a real-time environment. At the same …

In an interconnected world, cyber and physical networks face a number of challenges that
need to be resolved. These challenges are mainly due to the nature and complexity of …

Securing critical systems such as cyber physical systems (CPS) is an important feature
especially when it comes to critical transmitted data. At the same time, the implementation of …

Security patterns are intended to support software developers as the patterns encapsulate
security expert knowledge. However, these patterns may be inappropriately applied …

Raising the design abstraction level has been, since many years, a prominent solution to
decrease the complexity of self-adaptive real time embedded systems (RTES) and increase …

Simply confirming potential threats and vulnerabilities in an early stage of the development
process (eg, the requirement or design phase) is insufficient because software developers …

Incorporating security patterns into software architecture is essential for robust system
design. Model Driven Engineering (MDE) offers a structured approach to software …
