Configuration logics: Modeling architecture styles

Joseph Sifakis, Simon Bliudze, Anastasia Mavridou, Eduard Baranov

We study a framework for the specification of architecture styles as families of architectures involving a common set of types of components and coordination mechanisms. The framework combines two logics: 1) interaction logics for the specification of arch ...

Functional BIP: Embedding connectors in functional programming languages

Romain Edelmann, Joseph Sifakis, Simon Bliudze

This paper presents a theoretical foundation for functional language implementations of Behaviour–Interaction–Priority (BIP). We introduce a set of connector combinators describing synchronisation, data transfer, priorities and dynamicity in a principled w ...

Architecture Diagrams: A Graphical Language for Architecture Style Specification

Joseph Sifakis, Simon Bliudze, Anastasia Mavridou, Eduard Baranov

Architecture styles characterise families of architectures sharing common characteristics. We have recently proposed configuration logics for architecture style specification. In this paper, we study a graphical notation to enhance readability and easiness ...

Architecture-based Design: A Satellite On-board Software Case Study

Joseph Sifakis, Simon Bliudze, Anton Ivanov, Anastasia Mavridou

In this case study, we apply the architecture-based design approach to the control software of the CubETH satellite. Architectures are a means for ensuring global coordination properties and thus, achieving correctness of complex systems by construction. T ...

A General Framework for Architecture Composability

Joseph Sifakis, Simon Bliudze, Eduard Baranov

Architectures depict design principles: paradigms that can be understood by all, allow thinking on a higher plane and avoiding low-level mistakes. They provide means for ensuring correctness by construction by enforcing global properties characterizing the ...

Parameterized Systems in BIP: Design and Model Checking

Joseph Sifakis, Simon Bliudze, Qiang Wang

BIP is a component-based framework for system design that has important industrial applications. BIP is built on three pillars: behavior, interaction, and priority. In this paper, we introduce first-order interaction logic (FOIL) that extends BIP to system ...

A Theory Agenda for Component-Based Design

Joseph Sifakis, Simon Bliudze

The aim of the paper is to present a theory agenda for component-based design based on results that motivated the development of the BIP component framework, to identify open problems and discuss further research directions. The focus is on proposing a sem ...

Optimized distributed implementation of multiparty interactions with Restriction

Joseph Sifakis

Using high level coordination primitives allows enhanced expressiveness of component-based frameworks to cope with the inherent complexity of present-day systems designs. Nonetheless, their distributed implementation raises multiple issues, regarding both ...
