Optimizing software integration in component-based embedded systems by using simulated annealing
Michael Steindl, Michael Niemetz, Juergen Mottok, Stanislav Racek · 2013
The definition of the integration order in a component based embedded system is often a crucial part in the software development process. The integration sequence is affected by many parameters and there is a lack of methods to determine an order which fits best. This decision often depends on integrators expertise. This article considers two key parameters of software integration which are present in most development processes and describes an approach to determine a most suitable integration order.
