Description This thesis aims at developing tools able to decoupling the software and hardware development through virtualization while providing adaptability to heterogeneity, reliability and security to help make future Cyber-Physical Systems become a reality. The goal is to deliver an integrated development-production environment composed of a new container-based secure and resilient virtualization technology to deal with the complexity of the multi-dimensional heterogeneity (devices, systems, workloads, operating conditions, variability) plus a test/run-time set of monitorization, analysis and reconfiguration plugins to the virtual platform for enhanced energy-efficiency, life-time resiliency, security and updateability of future Cyber-Physical systems . The technologies developed in this thesis will cross-over all system stages from design to production; consequently, it will reduce the time-to- market as it enables a common hardware interface that eliminates the transition time between the design/prototype-test/ production phases. Virtualization will provide a degree of freedom unachievable with a conventional setup, plus low-overhead containers provide a feasible solution for CPS. Consequently, the new environment will reduce the system design cycle time by achieving the following:
• A virtual platform that can seamlessly be executed on simulators/emulators/final silicon. Thus, reducing development/ validation time and increasing productivity.
• A new paradigm to develop cross-platform toolboxes for characterization/testing/reconfiguration solutions.
• Transparent Low-level management of heterogeneity managed by the container engine.
• Transparent machine learning based per-application adaptability to Quality of Service (Qos) in terms of power, performance, timing, reliability and security through containerization .
