Abstract (EN): Internet-of-Things (IoT) systems are considered one of the most notable examples of complex, large-scale systems. Some authors have proposed visual programming (VP) approaches to address part of their inherent complexity. However, in most of these approaches, the orchestration of devices and system components is still dependent on a centralized unit, preventing higher degrees of dependability. In this work, we perform a systematic literature review (SLR) of the current approaches that provide visual and decentralized orchestration to define and operate IoT systems, reflecting upon a total of 29 proposals. We provide an in-depth discussion of these works and find out that only four of them attempt to tackle this issue as a whole, although still leaving a set of open research challenges. Finally, we argue that addressing these challenges could make IoT systems more fault-tolerant, with an impact on their dependability, performance, and scalability. © 2021, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
