             abstract = "Reconfigurable systems have evolved as a more comprehensive and 
                         better known area in the last years. Reconfigurability is strictly 
                         related to the ability to change: the more flexible a system is, 
                         the greater is its reconfigurability. Reconfiguration can provide 
                         the systems characteristics as self-adaptation, allowing their 
                         resources to be used according to the environment in which they 
                         are found and, consequently, extracting a better use of these 
                         resources. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), mine hoists, mobile 
                         robots, and balloon systems are some applications where 
                         self-adaptation and reconfiguration are important. Some 
                         reconfigurable systems are able to plan their reconfiguration at 
                         runtime, i.e., the system sets its new configuration while 
                         running. These systems are called Dynamically Reconfigurable 
                         Systems (DRSs). This paper aims to investigate DRSs seeking to 
                         answer four specific questions: (i) how the different kinds of 
                         DRSs are classified in the literature and what is their 
                         definitions; (ii) what are the hardware and software platforms, 
                         methodologies and techniques engaged in DRSs; (iii) what are the 
                         domains of application of DRSs; and, (iv) which countries lead the 
                         number of publications in DRSs. To do that, a systematic 
                         literature review was conducted, where, at the end, 85 articles 
                         between 1995 and 2017 were completely read.",
