Dynamically reconfigurable monitoring in large scale real-time embedded systems

This paper presents a tool that enables dynamic reconfigurable monitoring and control in large scale realtime embedded systems and thus fulfils the demands of the users for evolving user interfaces. This is achieved through model based user interfaces. The model based approach provides higher level abstractions, thus allowing the users to configure new user interfaces dynamically without knowing the underlying implementation details. Prototype implementations of software generators have been implemented to directly transform models into target user interfaces. These user interfaces execute under the Matlab runtime environment. This tool, along with other modeling tools developed, provides a framework for achieving fault-tolerance in large-scale distributed real-time embedded systems.
