Conference Object Utilizing Modeling Approach Patterns in the Embedded Software Industry(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019) Akdur, Deniz; Demirörs, OnurTo cope with the growing complexity of software-intensive embedded system development, modeling is a widely used approach. The modeling approaches in the embedded software industry vary depending on many modeling characteristics (e.g., purpose, modeling rigor, medium type used, modeling stakeholder profile, etc.). In the light of our previous studies, we have identified modeling approach patterns of embedded software development projects and constructed a characterization model. This model not only identifies and defines modeling approach patterns of the stakeholder in embedded software development projects, but also gives recommendations for commonsense modeling practices. In this article, one of the application results of this characterization model, which was performed in Defense & Aerospace sector is presented. The model was successfully applied to the case, in which a series of both structured and semi-structured interviews with 17 embedded software professionals were conducted. The results show that identification of individual patterns provide insight for improvement both for individuals as well as larger units of operations such as projects and organizations.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 9Modeling Cultures of the Embedded Software Industry: Feedback From the Field(Springer Verlag, 2021) Akdur, Deniz; Say, Bilge; Demirörs, OnurEngineering of modern embedded systems requires complex technical, managerial and operational processes. To cope with the complexity, modeling is a commonly used approach in the embedded software industry. The modeling approaches in embedded software vary since the characteristics of modeling such as purpose, medium type and life cycle phase differ among systems and industrial sectors. The objective of this paper is to detail the use of a characterization model MAPforES ("Modeling Approach Patterns for Embedded Software"). This paper presents the results of applying MAPforES in multiple case studies. The applications are performed in three sectors of the embedded software industry: defense and aerospace, automotive and transportation, and consumer electronics. A series of both structured and semi-structured interviews with 35 embedded software professionals were conducted as part of the case studies. The characterization model was successfully applied to these cases. The results show that identifying individual patterns provides insight for improving both individual behavior and the behavior of projects and organizations.
