Approach Based Patterns for System-of-Systems Reconfiguration

Systems-of-systems (SoS) are a particular class of systems that recruit dynamically their constituents to achieve a global goal. To accomodate this approach, the architecture of SoS is usually described by architectural patterns to be instantiated at runtime. Based on the study of an example, we introduce reconfiguration patterns to help reasoning on reconfiguration and maintaining the architectural patterns of the SoS.
