On the other hand a smart city with these requirements is usually evolving through incremental automation and integration of new components, that are digital or physical components or smart devices. To handle the growing scale and complexity of a system, an adaptive modelling method is needed for dynamic analysis and verification and/or validation, and integration. In this paper, we consider the case study of a Demand Response (DR) Programme that is to be realized by the deployment of a network of smart meters. Through this case study, we propose a component-based modelling approach and demonstrate how it deals with the growing complex architecture.}, year = {2014}, journal = {IEEE 15th International Symposium on "A World of Wireless, Mobile and Multimedia Networks"}, pages = {1-6}, month = {06/2014}, publisher = {IEEE Computer Society}, address = {Sydney}, isbn = {978-1-4799-4786-7}, url = {http://www.computer.org/csdl/proceedings/wowmom/2014/4786/00/06918927-abs.html}, doi = {10.1109/WoWMoM.2014.6918927}, }
