ABSTRACT an OCL-Based Verification Approach to Analyzing ABSTRACT An OCL-based Verification Approach to Analyzing Static Properties of a UML Model Wuliang Sun, M.S. Mentor: Eunjee Song, Ph.D. There is a need for more rigorous analysis techniques that developers can use for verifying the critical properties in UML models. The UML-based Specification Environment (USE) tool supports verification of invariants, preconditions, and post- conditions specified in the Object Constraint Language (OCL), which is useful when checking critical properties. However, the USE requires one to specify a model using its own textual language and does not allow one to import any model specification files created by other UML modeling tools. Hence, we often create a model with OCL constraints using a modeling tool such as the IBM Rational Software Architect (RSA) and then use the USE for the model verification. This approach, however, requires a manual transformation between two different specification formats, which diminishes the benefit of model-level verification. In this thesis, we describe our own implementation of a specification transformation engine based on the Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) framework.

  • UML Modelleme Araçlarının Pratik Kullanım Için Analizi
    UML Modelleme Araçlarının Pratik Kullanım için Analizi Mert Ozkaya1 and Ferhat Erata2 1 Yeditepe Üniversitesi , Ataşehir, İstanbul [email protected] 2 UNIT Bilgi Teknolojileri R&D Ltd., Bornova, Izmir [email protected] Özet. Günümüzde, Unified Modeling Language(UML) pratisyenler tarafından en sık tercih edilen yazılım sistemi modelleme ve tasarlama notasyonu olarak kabul edilmektedir. UML, aynı zamanda, birçok yazılım modelleme aracı tarafın- dan desteklenmektedir, ve bu araçlar sayesinde, pratisyenler yazılım sistem- lerini kolayca UML notasyonunu kullanarak modelleyebilir ve analiz, yazılım kodu üretme, ve işbirliği gibi birçok faydalı değişik işlemler gerçekleştirebilirler. Bu çalışmada, tanınan 11 farklı UML modelleme aracını pratisyenlerin UML’i benimsemeleri açısından önemli olduğunu düşündüğümüz bir grup gereksinim bakımından analiz ettik. Bu gereksinimler başlıca, modellerin tasarımı, model analizi, modelden kod üretme, iş-birliği halinde modelleme, ve genişletilebilir- lik olmaktadır. Model tasarımı gereksinimi, modelleme araçlarının UML diya- gramlarına olan destekleri, yazılım modelleme bakış-açılarına olan destekleri, ve büyük ve karmaşık yazılım modellerinin tasarımına olan destekleri açıların- dan ele alınmaktadır. Model analizi gereksinimi, simülasyon ve doğrulama (hem önceden tanımlanmış doğrulama hem de kullanıcı tanımlı doğrulama) gereksin- imlerine olan destek bakımından incelenmektedir. İş-birliği halinde modelleme gereksinimi ise, senkron ve asenkron olarak çoklu kullanıcı desteği, görev yöne-

  • Integration of Safety Analysis in Model-Driven Software Development M.A
    Integration of safety analysis in model-driven software development M.A. de Miguel J.F. Briones J. P. Silva A. Alonso Technical University of Madrid, E.T.S.I. Telecomunicacion, Ciudad Universitaria, Madrid 28040, Spain Abstract: Safety critical software requires integrating verification techniques in software development methods. Software architectures must guarantee that developed systems will meet safety requirements and safety analyses are frequently used in the assessment. Safety engineers and software architects must reach a common understanding on an optimal architecture from both perspectives. Currently both groups of engineers apply different modelling techniques and languages: safety analysis models and software modelling languages. The solutions proposed seek to integrate both domains coupling the languages of each domain. It constitutes a sound example of the use of language engineering to improve efficiency in a software-related domain. A model-driven development approach and the use of a platform-independent language are used to bridge the gap between safety analyses (failure mode effects and criticality analysis and fault tree analysis) and software development languages (e.g. unified modelling language). Language abstract syntaxes (metamodels), profiles, language mappings (model transformations) and language refinements, support the direct application of safety analysis to software architectures for the verification of safety requirements. Model consistency and the possibility of automation are found among the benefits. 1 Introduction activities improves the consistency of safety analysis and software development. In this approach, the software In model-driven developments (MDD), (MDD is a paradigm development models are the main focus in safety critical for development of software applications) models are on the software analysis, but safety analysis concepts complement critical path of software development.

    Software Systems E ngineering H. Eichelberger, Y. Eldogan, K. Schmid A Comprehensive Analysis of UML Tools, their Capabilities and their Compliance August 2011 Version 2.0 IfI Report Nr. 1/2012 Software Systems Engineering Institut für Informatik Universität Hildesheim Marienburger Platz 22 D-31134 Hildesheim A comprehensive survey of UML tool capabilities and compliance A comprehensive survey of UML tool capabilities and compliance Executive Summary The Unified Modeling Language (UML) has been widely adopted in software engineering prac- tice in industry over the last decade. A large range of different tools have been developed both from industrial providers as well as open source tools. However, due to the complexity of the UML specification it is very difficult for a single tool to support the full range of UML stand- ards faithfully. In practice tools differ significantly in terms of the parts of the UML specifica- tion they support. The decision of a development organization for a specific tool environment is a very significant one, which typically leads to a significant amount of costs (e.g., in terms of training), out of which the licensing costs, though significant, are often only a minor part. Thus, the tool needs to be chosen with very much care. As one aid towards a rational tool selection decision, this report provides the most comprehensive comparison of UML tools currently available. This study provides the most comprehensive assessment of the current tool support. It combines a detailed information collection effort for each individual tool, a broad range of tools analyzed and also analyzed UML compliance as defined by the OMG.

  • MDA Tool Support for Model Driven Software Evolution: a Survey
    Madhavi Karanam / International Journal of Computer Science Engineering (IJCSE) MDA Tool Support for Model Driven Software Evolution: A Survey Madhavi Karanam Computer Science and Engineering Department, Sri Venkateswara Engineering College, Suryapet, Telangana, India Email: [email protected] Abstract: The explosive growth of model driven approaches and the emergence of Model Driven Engineering (MDE) have led to the Model-Driven Software Evolution (MoDSE) which is a new paradigm for software evolution. Growing interest in the model driven approaches has largely increased the number of tools into the development environment. Using the modeldescribed by analysts, software tools will do the rest of the task,generating software that will comply with customer's defined requirements.Previous research has shown that the user often do not use or know all of the tools available in the model evolution environment that they regularly use. The common solution to this problem is to provide a means to search through passive help documents. So, choosing the right tool has become very much essential because of the diverse tools usage for MoDSE tasks.The main aim of this paper is to explore the MDA tools to know the automation support provided by these tools in model driven evolution process. It is also aim to know the general list of tools, ease of use, which meets the requirements, support for platform independent models, free and commercial tools etc. It is observed from the survey of various tools that no single tool serves the purpose and there is an enough automation support for activities of Model Driven Software Evolution. Key Words: Model Driven Software Evolution, Model Driven Architecture, MDA Tools.
