  Description

COMBEST will provide a formal framework for component based design of complex embedded systems. This framework will:<br/>1.\tEnable formal integration of heterogeneous components, such as with different models of communication or execution;<br/>2.\tProvide complete encapsulation of components both for functional and extra-functional properties and develop foundations and methods ensuring composability of components;<br/>3.\tEnable prediction of emergent key system characteristics such as performance and robustness (timing, safety) from such characterizations of its subcomponents;<br/>4.\tProvide certificates for guarantees of such key system characteristics when deployed on distributed HW-architectures<br/> <br/>To achieve these objectives, COMBEST will:<br/>•\tDevelop a design theory for complex embedded systems, fully covering heterogeneity, interface specifications, composability, compositionality, and refinement for functional and extra-functional properties<br/>•\tBuild on substantial highly recognized background results of the academic partners, partly carried out within the integrated projet SPEEDS;<br/>•\tExtend results of the Integrated Project SPEEDS, both regarding heterogeneous rich components and compositional analysis methods.<br/>•\tCollaborate with the best US groups in embedded system design to build critical mass in a strategic area of vital interest to the European industrial ecosystem.
