Architecting critical systems has gained major importance in commercial, g- ernmentalandindustrialsectors. Emergingsoftwareapplicationsencompasscr- icalities that are associated with either the whole system or some of its com- nents. Therefore, e?ective methods, techniques, and tools for constructing, te- ing, analyzing, and evaluating the architectures for critical systems are of major importance. Furthermore, these methods, techniques and tools must address - sues of dependability and security, while focusing not only on the development, but also on the deployment and evolution of the...
