“…The most frequently used specification type is the parsed specification type, reported in 21 studies. A parsed specification includes, among others, the study by Cambronero et al [28], which introduces the development method-based UML profile for real-time systems modelling (RT-UML). One of the features of this method is the transformation of RT-UML models into WS-CDL language that includes details about time constraints, which is then translated into BPEL.…”

Context] Software companies that develop their products on a basis of service-oriented architecture can expect various improvements as a result of choreography. Current choreography practices, however, are not yet used extensively in the embedded systems domain even though service-oriented architecture is increasingly used in this domain.[Objective] The objective of this study is to identify current features of the use of choreography in the embedded systems domain for practitioners and researchers by systematically analysing current developments in the scientific literature, strategies for choreography adaption, choreography specification and execution types, and implicit assumptions about choreography.[Method] To fulfil this objective, a systematic literature review of scientific publications that focus on the use of choreography in the embedded systems domain was carried out. After a systematic screening of 6823 publications, 48 were selected as primary studies and analysed using thematic synthesis.[Results] The main results of the study showed that there are differences in how choreography is used in embedded and non-embedded systems domain. In the embedded systems domain, it is used to capture the service interactions of a single organisation, while, for example, in the enterprise systems domain it captures the service interactions among multiple organisations. Additionally, the results indicate that the use of choreography can lead to improvements in system performance and that the languages that are used for choreography modelling in the embedded systems domain are insufficiently expressive to capture the complexities that are typical in this domain.[Conclusion] The selection of the key information resources and the identified gaps in the existing literature offer researchers a foundation for further investigations and contribute to the advancement of the use of choreography in the embedded systems domain. The study results facilitate the work of practitioners by allowing them to make informed decisions about the applicability of choreography in their organisations.

“…Knowledge: Three studies formed the theoretical base for studying RT requirements in CML. How a specification written in RT-UML can be translated into Choreography Description Language containing RT information is presented in (Cambronero et al, 2006). RT information expressing the time during which one participant use another's resources is explicitly supported in Scribble, which is a CML proposed in (Hu et al, 2013).…”

Software companies that develop embedded systems following the principles of service-oriented architecture can anticipate various benefits from choreography modelling. Current choreography modelling languages, however, have a limited applicability in embedded systems development since they are not expressive enough to capture all the choreography-relevant aspects that are typical in this domain. We tackled this problem by analysing the needs of embedded systems for choreography modelling language. Our analysis was guided by design science and relied on expert interviews, company-specific documents and the relevant literature. The main results of the analysis presented in this paper are a) design requirements addressing the limitations of choreography modelling languages for embedded systems development and b) proposals for modelling language implementation technologies. The feasibility of these results is evaluated by redesigning an existing choreography modelling language and by implementing a prototype editor for the redesigned language.

“…These attributes can capture information about the location of participants in the choreography scenario and enabled choreographed interactions between their services. Similar approach is adopted by Cambronero, Diaz, Pardo, Valero and Pelayo (2006), where the WS-CDL (Kavantzas et al, 2005) is extended with attributes which allowed it to capture the system's real-time constraints.…”

Software companies that develop embedded systems following the principles of service-oriented architecture can anticipate various benefits from choreography modelling. Current choreography modelling languages, however, have a limited applicability in embedded systems development since they are not expressive enough to capture all the choreography-relevant aspects that are typical in this domain. This problem is addressed in this study with the analysis of the needs in embedded systems domain for choreography modelling language. The analysis was guided by design science and relied on expert interviews, company-specific documents, relevant scientific literature and the experts' evaluation of the redesigned choreography modelling language. The main results of the analysis presented in this paper are a) design requirements addressing the limitations of choreography modelling languages for embedded systems development and b) proposals for modelling language implementation technologies. The derived design requirements indicate on choreography-relevant embedded systems development aspects such as the constraint-based access and real-time execution. Modelling language implementation technology proposals include Eclipse modelling framework and Sirius. The feasibility of these results is evaluated by redesigning an existing choreography modelling language based on the derived design requirements, implementing a prototype editor for the redesigned language and by evaluating the redesigned language with experts.
