“…Second, the studied papers are only publicly reachable papers written in English or Turkish, and there may exist relevant papers not publicly available or not written in English or Turkish. Software quality attributes research has been gaining the attention of researchers on various subjects such as software systems development [4][5][6], software maintenance and testing [7], software quality models [8], software architecture [9], selection and prioritization of quality attributes [10], and trade-offs and relations among quality attributes [11]. In particular, this paper aims to present a software quality attribute-oriented literature review for crisis software systems and applications.…”

Developing software systems to meet user-demanded functionality is critical. Achieving the design goals by providing the needed functionality is a necessary task, and it is about figuring out a proper set of quality attributes and implementing each one by reflecting a complete set of quality attributes. This study presents popular quality attributes of crisis software systems by conducting a literature review. Each crisis software system has been studied by concentrating on crisis management phases where the system is used, design purposes, and the data processing style. The findings of this research shed light on the crisis software development process by presenting a quality attribute-oriented perspective, addressing design challenges, and recommending to developers remedies to handle challenges.

“…Its citizens are frequently arriving and leaving the city while bringing together their appliances capable of communicating via the internet (so called smart gadgets) which are capable of contributing and affect the smart city architectural configuration. Executable technologies, such as models@runtime [Gu et al 2018], executable UML [Ciccozzi et al 2018] and simulation [Gray and Rumpe 2016] which are known as Executable models (ExM) allow software architects to design and evaluate the architecture and the emerging behaviors of their constituent systems [Levis and Wagenhals 2000].…”

“…Distribution forces architects to pay special attention to interoperability quality attribute. ED also poses as complicating factors for the architecture, once traditional architectures are not so dynamic and current notations are not prepared to capture such dynamism, which pressures architects to search for new alternatives, such as ExM and Adaptive Systems [Jamshidi 2008, Gu et al 2018. EB is another problem that architects must face.…”

Systems of Systems (SoS) are complex systems composed of managerially and operationally independent constituent systems (CS). Smart cities are examples of SoS. However, these types of systems impose challenges to traditional software architecture such as highly evolutionary architecture due to the evolution of individual CS and emergent behaviors that results from the interoperability of CS. Executable Models (ExM) are a class of models that can be executed and that can assist on architectural design of SoS. By using them, architects can predict the SoS structure and behavior by visualizing and simulating the SoS still at design-time. On the other hand, as any other emergent technologies, it suffers with absent scientific evidences of its benefits, mainly in industrial context. The main contribution of this master thesis project intends to be the presentation of evidences about the use of ExM to solve problems in the SoS software architecture design. For achieving such purpose, this project is structured in well-defined steps: (i) a systematic mapping study, (ii) elaboration of a conceptual map derived from the mapping study, (iii) a survey to obtain perceptions from software engineering professionals on the use of ExM in the context of engineering simple systems and (iv) a new survey expanding the previous study and to obtain perceptions from software engineering professionals on the use of ExM in the context of architectural design of SoS. Preliminary results reveal that ExM have been reported in diverse SoS domains, offering a dynamic and interactive view to the SoS. We also found that software engineering professionals see ExM as suitable solution for dealing with complex and critical systems as SoS.
