SmartModels – Contributions to Developing an Evolving Platform for Mechatronic Software Systems

Abstract:

This paper applies the SmartModels approach for building software product lines (SPL), illustrated through the example of modeling a mechatronics framework for designing anti-lock braking system (ABS) embedded software solutions. This example proves the expressiveness of the SmartModels approach to capture within a model sufficient meta-information to enable the design of families of entities from the mechatronics domain, taking advantage of the polymorphism and abstraction properties of object-oriented approaches and parameterized genericity.
