 				<h3>Background</h3>
 				<p>
 					Distributed dependable real-time embedded software systems, like Satellite on board software,
 					are becoming increasingly complex due to the demand for extended functionalities or the reuse of
 					legacy code and components. Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) approaches are good solutions to help
 					build such complex systems. Addressing domain specific modeling (like component description and
 					interaction, real-time constraints, ...) while keeping the flexibility and generality offered by
 					languages like UML is a challenge in a context where software must be qualified according to safety
 					and reliability standards.
 				</p>
 				<p>
 					That's why the CHESS project was created to address the development of high-integrity embedded
 					systems by combining component-based development on top of model driven engineering and addressing
 					dependability and real-time specific constraints.
 				</p>

 				<h3>Scope</h3>
 				<p>
 					The CHESS project provides a model-driven, component-based methodology [1] and tool support for the development of high-integrity systems for different domains. The methodology is particularly suited for space systems and industrial domains.
 				</p>
 				<p>
 					Thanks to a dedicated MARTE and UML profile and associated tooling, CHESS addresses solutions
 					to problems of property-preserving component assembly in real-time and dependable embedded
 					systems, and supports the description, verification, and preservation of real-time properties
 					(like sporadic/periodic activation patterns, worst case execution time, deadline) of software
 					components at the level of component design down to the execution level.
 				</p>
 				<p>
 					CHESS enables the design of safety-critical systems implementing the contract-based paradigm. The structural and behavioural aspects are verified interacting respectively with contract-based verification tools (such as <a href="https://ocra.fbk.eu/">OCRA</a>) and model checking tools (such as <a href="https://nuxmv.fbk.eu/">nuXmv</a>).
 				</p>
 				<p>
 					CHESS also addresses the description and verification of system and component dependability
 					properties (like fault, error, failures and failures propagations) through a dedicated UML profile for dependability
 					and seamless integration with embedded and external dependability tools, such as <a href="https://xsap.fbk.eu/">xSAP</a>, enabling failure propagation and
 					state based analysis.
 				</p>
 				<p>
 					CHESS tooling extends Papyrus editor to properly support the CHESS methodology, in particular
 					allowing working with different views on the model including requirements, system, components,
 					deployment and analysis view.
 				</p>

 				<h3>Description</h3>
 				<p>
 					CHESS implements the CHESS UML/SysML profile, a specialization of the Modeling and Analysis of
 					Real-Time and Embedded Systems (MARTE) profile, by producing extensions to Papyrus that provide
 					component-based engineering methodology and tool support for the development of high-integrity
 					embedded systems in different domains like satellite on board systems
 				</p>
 				<p>
 					The CHESS tool environment is composed by: (1) a MARTE, UML and SysML profile, (2) an extension to the
 					Papyrus UML graphical editor that supports the notion of design views, (3) a model validator
 					that assesses the well-formedness of the model before model transformations can be undertaken,
 					and (4) a set of model to model and model to text transformations, the former for the purpose
 					of model-based schedulability,dependability and contract-based design analysis, and the latter for code generation
 					toward multiple language targets.
