Abstract

Adaptive systems are class of systems that change their behavior in response to external or internal disrupting events. These kinds of system are of interest to government, industry, and research community. An instance of an adaptive system is a multi-UAV swarm operating in open, dynamic environment. Such systems are employed to carry out missions such as search and rescue and disaster relief. Developing adaptive systems requires a hardware-software testbed to explore system behavior and make adjustments to achieve desired behaviors. This paper presents an ontology-enabled approach for developing integrated hardware-software testbed for engineering adaptive systems. Multi-UAV operation is used as an illustrative example of an adaptive system that stands to benefit from a hardware-software experimentation testbed.
