Summary on Grant Application Form
This is a 5 year Platform Grant proposal to support personnel and travel for the Distributed Software Engineering Group within the Department of Computing, Imperial College. This is a world-renowned group which combines practical work on building tools for design and implementation of adaptive distributed systems and networks with more formal software engineering approaches to behaviour modelling, requirements specification, language semantics and type systems for distributed programming. This proposal will provide support for cohesion and continuity of funding for a range of projects based on a sound Software Engineering approach to adaptive software environments, policy and security and requirements engineering for ubiquitous computing systems. The proposal will also partially fund an experienced researcher to coordinate the effort required for packaging and maintaining experimental software to make it more accessible to external academic and industrial users. The recent international review of UK Computing Science specifically identified the need for this type of activity.
