Abstract

Highly-reconfigurable component-based systems, i.e., systems that are built form existing components and are distributed in many versions and configurations, are becoming increasingly popular.

The design and verification of such systems presents new challenges. In this paper we propose a design approach that facilitates analysis and testing of different configurations by identifying and tracking relations among requirements, logic components and resources. The approach proposed in the paper allows for easily identifying different dependencies among resources, components and requirements and thus spotting the tests that must be re-executed to assure the desired level of quality.
