“…Patterns as a means to encapsulate and communicate proven security and privacy solutions, is an active and growing field of research [20][21][22]. In general they are architecture patterns that describe abstract building blocks or components (e.g., Safe Storage) that must be incorporated in the enterprise's security architecture in order to address certain security and privacy concerns (e.g., to mitigate a threat, to comply with a regulation or institutional policy, or to ensure some security or privacy property).…”

SMEs face multiple challenges related to cybersecurity and personal data protection. Prominent amongst these challenges is the lack of appropriate guidelines addressing specific SME requirements. The proposed RE methodology aspires to bridge this gap by establishing a generic process specifically targeting SMEs needs and capabilities. This paper describes the conceptual foundation of the methodology and reports on the way that the theoretical foundations were applied on an SME offering social care services.

“…That is not to say that parts of the architectures cannot be formally modelled; UML models can be complemented with formal descriptions such as OCL [10], and with them, we can make this architecture more formal if needed [11]. Furthermore, patterns and RAs can be converted into ontologies, which are even more precise descriptions and allow for proving some formal properties [12]. Note that for CPSs, it is also possible to define reference architectures that include several levels [4,13,14].…”

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are physical systems whose operations are coordinated, monitored, and controlled by computing and communication functions. These systems are typically heterogeneous, including Internet of Things and information technology subsystems, and can present a myriad of implementation details, making them very complex systems. An important type of CPS is a maritime container terminal (cargo port), which is a facility where cargo containers are transported between ships and land vehicles for onward transportation and vice versa. A cargo port performs four basic functions: receiving, storing, staging, and loading for both import and export containers. We present here process patterns that describe the functional aspects of cargo ports and a pattern that describes their structural properties (patterns are encapsulated solutions to recurrent problems). These patterns describe semantic aspects found in any cargo port and can be adapted to describe other CPSs. We decompose these process patterns into use cases that describe their interactions with the system. We then integrate the process patterns with structural patterns to assemble a partial reference architecture (RA) that shows the interactions of all the patterns while also indicating the typical stakeholders found in all ports. We validate the proposed reference architecture, highlighting its theoretical and practical value. Software and system designers of cargo ports need to start from a conceptual and abstract view that is subsequently refined to add more details. The use of reference architectures and patterns is an effective way to organize and describe the functional and non-functional aspects of a system, as well as to unify the design of all its aspects. This is, until now, the only published RA for cargo ports, and it can be a useful guideline for the designers of any type of cargo port.
