A comparison framework for runtime monitoring approaches (journal-first abstract)

Abstract

This extended abstract summarizes our paper entitled "A Comparison Framework for Runtime Monitoring Approaches" published in the Journal on Systems and Software in vol. 125 in 2017 (https://doi.org/10.1016/jjss.2016.12.034). This paper provides the following contributions: (i) a framework that supports analyzing and comparing runtime monitoring approaches using different dimensions and elements; (ii) an application of the framework to analyze and compare 32 existing monitoring approaches; and (iii) a discussion of perspectives and potential future applications of our framework, e.g., to support the selection of an approach for a particular monitoring problem or application context.
