Making software adaptable to evolving requirements is a challenge for the software industry. The reason behind it is that adaptation compels software developers to follow almost all software developmental stages, from code development to software deployment. Due to this, any change in requirements, the iteration should be re-initiated. Thereby, adaptation requires software reconfiguration and r...

Variability is inherent in health processes and the diversity of implementation cases implies the need to control the modeling and management of those processes as well as their adaptation to highly dynamic environments. Research conducted within the AP-HM fits into this problematic. It is applied to the medication circuit and has led to the proposal of the V-BPMI approach for the description, ...

Dynamic reconfiguration allows adding or removing components of component-based systems without incurring any system downtime. To satisfy specific requirements, adaptation policies provide the means to dynamically reconfigure the systems in relation to (events in) their environment. This paper extends event-based adaptation policies by integrating temporal requirements into them. The challenge ...

The dynamic adaptation of multimedia content in distributed heterogeneous environments is a key enabler for next generation ubiquitous and pervasive services. Systems implementing the Universal Multimedia Access (UMA) approaches are predominantly combinations of MPEG-centric and/or proprietary solutions. However, it is important to reach interoperability between the IETF approaches for multimed...
