Verification of component-based systems still suffers from limitations such as state space explosion since a large number of different components may interact in an heterogeneous environment. Those limitations entail the need for complementary verification methods such as runtime verification based on dynamic analysis and prone to scalability. In this paper, we integrate runtime verification into the BIP (Behavior, Interaction, and Priority) framework. BIP is a powerful component-based framework for the construction of heterogeneous systems. Our method augments BIP systems with monitors checking a user-provided specification. This method has been implemented in RV-BIP, a prototype tool that we used to validate the whole approach on a robotic application.
