Evaluating non-functional properties globally
"... Abstract Real-time systems are usually dependable systems which, besides timing constraints, have to meet some other quality criteria in order to provide certain reliance on its operation. For this reason, a key issue in the development of this kind of system is to trade off the different non-funct ..."

this decision activity is based on treating non-functional properties and requirements uniformly, and still supporting specific evaluation and analysis.
Non-Functional Property Specifications for WRIGHT ADL
"... Many architecture description languages (ADLs) were proposed for describing structure of software systems in terms of components and connectors. However, specification of non-functional properties is not addressed well in these ADLs, although it is crucial for building quality software architectures ..."

Compositional Patterns of Non-Functional Properties for Contract Negotiation
"... Abstract — Providing powerful and fine-grained capabilities for the analysis and management of non-functional properties is a major challenge for component-based software systems. This article presents an approach that relies on some integration patterns of non-functional properties in hierarchical ..."

Modeling non-functional properties for human-machine systems
"... Abstract A Human-Machine system is a complex system consisting of many components and services that dynamically compose to achieve a specific goal. The functional and non-functional attributes of the components are considered to make 'who does, what, and when' decisions depending on the o ..."

on the operational context. However, non-functional properties are not given sufficient importance compared to that of the functional requirements during the developmental stages. This paper highlights the importance of non-functional properties in humanmachine systems and proposes a metamodel for modeling those
Integration of non-functional properties in containers
- In Proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Component-Oriented Programming (WCOP
, 2001
"... Designers and developers try to build stable and multi-domain software components while the software infrastructure they use keeps evolving thus becoming heterogeneous. This can be called “the business and technical life cycle mismatch”. The paper shows where and why middleware technologies fail to ..."

The container is an entity visible as much during software component development as during its execution. Some of its properties must

On the Reusable Specification of Non-functional Properties in DSLs
"... Abstract. Domain-specific languages (DSLs) are an important tool for effective system development. They provide concepts that are close to the problem domain and allow analysis as well as generation of full solution implementations. However, this comes at the cost of having to develop a new language ..."

In this paper, we discuss how such building blocks can be constructed for the specification and analysis of a range of non-functional properties, such as
Service selection based on non-functional properties
- In Proceedings of Non Functional Properties and Service Level Agreements in Service Oriented Computing Workshop
, 2007
"... Abstract. Service-oriented Architecture supports software to be composed from services dynamically. Selecting and composing appropriate services according to business process, policies and non-functional constraints is an essential challenge. This paper proposes a method for automatic selection of t ..."

Service Selection using Non-Functional Properties in

The dynamic environment of MANETs demands service selection should not only based on functional properties but also be driven by non-functional requirements. In this paper ..."

Techniques for Evolving Non-Functional Properties of Software
"... Abstract: Software systems find themselves working in an environment that forces them to be undergoing rapid change, and with each change to provide better services. In some systems, the functional requirements are easy to provide, it is the non-functional ones that are difficult. Yet with the ever ..."
