“…FraSCAti, an SCA implementation based on Fractal [ 46 ], support dynamic system reconfiguration through scripting, but does not support resource management nor automatic application re-composition in case of non-functional unexpected events such as node failure. This is also the case of other frameworks such as OSGi [ 47 ] or SOFA [ 48 ].…”

eHealth systems have adopted recent advances on sensing technologies together with advances in information and communication technologies (ICT) in order to provide people-centered services that improve the quality of life of an increasingly elderly population. As these eHealth services are founded on the acquisition and processing of sensitive data (e.g., personal details, diagnosis, treatments and medical history), any security threat would damage the public’s confidence in them. This paper proposes a solution for the design and runtime management of indoor eHealth applications with security requirements. The proposal allows applications definition customized to patient particularities, including the early detection of health deterioration and suitable reaction (events) as well as security needs. At runtime, security support is twofold. A secured component-based platform supervises applications execution and provides events management, whilst the security of the communications among application components is also guaranteed. Additionally, the proposed event management scheme adopts the fog computing paradigm to enable local event related data storage and processing, thus saving communication bandwidth when communicating with the cloud. As a proof of concept, this proposal has been validated through the monitoring of the health status in diabetic patients at a nursing home.

“…In this sense, some real time oriented component frameworks actually provide support for modeling real-time attributes (e.g., period or budget) and scheduling analysis [40]. Other component frameworks are specifically designed for a specific application domain (e.g., Autosar [11] and BlueArX [22] in automotive, or OROCOS [12] in robotics), whilst other cover a broader range of applications and diverse requirements (e.g., Fractal [16], SOFA [27] or SCA [32]). …”

Sensory environments for healthcare are commonplace nowadays. A patient monitoring system in such an environment deals with sensor data capture, transmission and processing in order to provide on-the-spot support for monitoring the vulnerable and critical patients. A fault in such a system can be hazardous on the health of the patient. Therefore, such a system must be dependable and ensure reliability, fault-tolerance, safety and other critical aspects, in order to deploy it in real scenario. Also, the management of the infrastructure resources must be efficient and the eventual system reconfiguration must be reliably performed. This paper encounters some of these issues and proposes a component platform with specific support for several QoS aspects, namely fault tolerance, safe inter-component communication and resource management. The platform adopts the Service Component Architecture (SCA) model and defines a Data Distribution Service (DDS) binding, which provides the fault tolerance and the required safety-ensuring techniques and measures, as defined in the IEC Multimed Tools Appl

“…In the former case, a single container is defined for managing the execution of aspects for all base system components, usually named execution environment as in [34,60] or virtual machine as in [12]. In the latter case, a container per component or group of components is defined for managing aspects for its enclosed component(s) [61][62][63]. Table 1 shows whether container-based approaches validate our feature model presented in Section 3.2.…”

Dealing with crosscutting and dynamic features in component software using aspect‐orientation: requirements and experiences

Coping with crosscutting and dynamic features of software systems has significant impacts on software modularity, reusability, adaptability, and maintainability. However, dealing with such features is a tremendous challenge for different software paradigms, particularly component-based software development (CBSD) where components can be used as black box software units. Fortunately, dealing with crosscutting features is the main focus of aspect-orientation (AO). To compromise, a plethora of different AO and CBSD combinations are available. There is, however, little consensus on how AO and CBSD can be combined and what AO qualities need to be integrated for getting maximum benefits from the combination. In the aim to reach a consensus and increase the understanding of requirements for proper combinations that deal with crosscutting and dynamic features, the authors conduct a domain analysis study of existing combination endeavours; they first identify a set of requirements ought to be fulfilled for proper modelling of crosscutting and dynamic features in component software using AO; second, they group the identified requirements into an evaluation model; third, they check the capability of existing combinations to validate the evaluation model. The study highlighted mandatory requirements for proper combinations and revealed that none of the existing endeavours validates the evaluation model.
