Original Kurzfassung:
Recent decades saw the complexity of modern engineered systems raise to never-before seen heights. Developments such as Smart Grids, the Internet-of-Things, Cyber-Physical Systems and Machine Learning open new opportunities, but also pose new challenges for systems engineers who have to integrate and navigate through a highly diverse network of application and computation nodes. Ranging from huge cloud services to powerful edge devices such as autonomous vehicles, systems creators at simultaneously have to choose how to build, structure, maintain and certify their systems? functionality. After all, non-functioning cloud services might impact the lives of millions of users and involve enormous financial loss, while bringing highly autonomous agents (e.g. self-driving vehicles or delivery robots) and consumer health applications (e.g. pacemakers) have the potential to severely threaten human safety, health and life, if mismanaged.
