Abstract

This paper presents the first step towards a formalism for the modelling and analysis of dynamic reconfiguration of dependable real-time systems. The first version of our formalism (CCSdp) is focused on dynamic process reconfiguration. That is, process creation, deletion and replacement at runtime. We illustrate the process through which CCSdp is being developed using a series of trials in modelling a highly simplified sensor array, in order to determine the simplest construct necessary for modelling process reconfiguration. We define the syntax and operational semantics of CCSdp, and identify a bisimulation for further investigation.
