Description:

The aim of this workshop is to discuss but also advance the state-of-the-art, research and development in the area of resource constrained systems, and to promote the study of both fundamental and practical aspects of component based design of such systems. The workshop addresses researchers from different disciplines in academia and industry, as well as practitioners, who share interests in resource constrained system design. The focus will be on techniques and experiences drawn from current component-based system design practice, as well as on emergent topics

The category of resource-constrained systems encompasses a broad range of systems, from very simple and heavily resource-constrained systems to complex distributed systems. Such systems should be customizable, easy to use, upgrade and maintain. A time-tested way to build diverse systems with these desirable attributes at low cost is through componentization and reuse: building systems by integrating configurable and evolvable components in a systematic way. The latter creates the need for models and associated rules to guide componentization, frameworks for system integration, and techniques for verification and validation of component-based design and implementation. The component-based techniques should cover systems having minimal resource requirements, yet be usable on all ranges of resource-constrained systems that fulfill these requirements.
