Title: Embedded Software Component Technologies for Real time Systems - An Industrial Perspective
Description: In this paper, we compare existing software component technologies for embedded systems with respect to requirements captured from the vehicle industry. The vehicular industry wants to make use of the advantages with component based design ; however they also need to address non-functional properties of their products, such as reliability and timeliness. Several component technologies addressing such properties have recently been proposed. In this paper, we present initial findings from an ongoing evaluation concerning some of these technologies with respect to the requirements stated by industrial actors.
We conclude that none of the studied technologies is a perfect match for the industrial requirements. Furthermore, no single technology stands out as being a significantly better choice than the others; each technology has its own pros and cons
