Software-intensive embedded systems, especially cyber-physical systems, benefit from the additional performance and the small\r\npower envelope offered by many-core processors. Nevertheless, the adoption of a massively parallel processor architecture in\r\nthe embedded domain is still challenging. The integration of multiple and potentially parallel functions on a chipââ?¬â?instead of\r\njust a single functionââ?¬â?makes best use of the resources offered. However, this multifunction approach leads to new technical\r\nand nontechnical challenges during the integration. This is especially the case for a distributed system architecture, which is\r\nsubject to specific safety considerations. In this paper, it is argued that these challenges cannot be effectively addressed with\r\ntraditional engineering approaches. Instead, the application of the ââ?¬Å?correctness by constructionââ?¬Â principle is proposed to improve\r\nthe integration process.
