“…In addition, we will try to complement our security mechanism by adding new features like an intrusion detection system able to automatically reconfigure the system. Second, we plan to map other domain metamodels, such as workflow, GUI, house-automation [20], etc to our architectural metamodel connected to a running system. This way, it would be possible to drive the execution of a software system by manipulating domain concepts, rather than by directly manipulating the architecture.…”

Security is a key-challenge for software engineering, especially when considering access control and software evolutions. No satisfying solution exists for maintaining the alignment of access control policies with the business logic. Current implementations of access control rely on the separation between the policy and the application code. In practice, this separation is not so strict and some rules are hardcoded within the application, making the evolution of the policy difficult. We propose a new methodology for implementing security-driven applications. From a policy defined by a security expert, we generate an architectural model, reflecting the access control policy. We leverage the advances in the models@runtime domain to keep this model synchronized with the running system. When the policy is updated, the architectural model is updated, which in turn reconfigures the running system. As a proof of concept, we apply the approach to the development of a library management system.

“…Consequently, a reorganization operation is more often required to reestablish a coherent classification between concepts in the common ontology. The second category models the domain with an abstract representation like an ontology in [5] or with a meta model in [16]. In DOG, similar device types and actions are modeled with abstract ontology concepts, (light device, dimming action, switch on/off) then these concepts are mapped to specific technology actions and syntax using specific rules to fill pre-written Java/OSGi code templates.…”

Abstract. Ubiquitous Systems are expected in the near future to have much more impact on our daily tasks thanks to advances in embedded systems, "Plug-n-Play" protocols and software architectures. Such protocols target home devices and enables automatic discovery and interaction among them. Consequently, smart applications are shaping the home into a smart one by orchestrating devices in an elegant manner. Currently, several protocols coexist in smart homes but interactions between devices cannot be put into action unless devices are supporting the same protocol. Furthermore, smart applications must know in advance names of services and devices to interact with them. However, such names are semantically equivalent but syntactically different needing translation mechanisms. In order to reduce human efforts for achieving interoperability, we introduce an approach combining ontology alignment techniques with those of Model Driven Engineering domain to reach a dynamic service adaptation.

“…EnTiMid [10] is an ubiquitous software system built over an OSGi execution platform and developed in an assisted living context. The aim of this system, is to offer a levelsufficient abstraction of the devices in the home, making it possible for highlevel services to interact with physical devices (such as lights, heater or temperature sensors)…”

Abstract. Today's society increasingly depends on software systems subject to varying environmental conditions imposing that they continuously adapt. A dynamic adaptation reconfigures a running system from a consistent state into another consistent state. To achieve this goal, a reconfiguration consists in executing a set of actions leading from source to target configuration. The planning of actions has often been neglected in adaptation mechanisms, leading to naive sequential schedules statically predefined. EnTiMid, a ubiquitous software system for assisted living, is one of these adapting systems using basic adaptation plan. This situation may cause problems when considering adaptations involving large set of actions and/or devices, particularly for distributed service-based applications. We propose a framework to ease the integration of different planning algorithms that produce more efficient adaptation plan than an ad-hoc algorithm.
