The IECS-MS case study:

We consider the Darwin ADL as the staging point for the composition.
Now we cover all the concerns of a possible system being developed (e.g., fault tolerance, direct link
to the development process, and so on) by extending it with other architectural concepts.
We do this incrementally, by firstly adding to Darwin the idealized fault tolerant
component model that is one of the solutions extensively used to make an architecture fault tolerant.
Then we integrate Darwin extended with fault tolerance with the development process in
Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) and finally the obtained ADL is customized by adding
software connectors as firstclass elements.

We use the architectural notation resulted from the composition to model a real software architecture.
The modeled system is called Integrated Environment for Communication on Ship (IECS), and its models are
provided in the byADLexample archive available here: http://byadl.di.univaq.it/files/byADLexample.zip
