  • Using the UML for Architectural Description?
    Using the UML for Architectural Description? Rich Hilliard Integrated Systems and Internet Solutions, Inc. Concord, MA USA [email protected] Abstract. There is much interest in using the Unified Modeling Lan- guage (UML) for architectural description { those techniques by which architects sketch, capture, model, document and analyze architectural knowledge and decisions about software-intensive systems. IEEE P1471, the Recommended Practice for Architectural Description, represents an emerging consensus for specifying the content of an architectural descrip- tion for a software-intensive system. Like the UML, IEEE P1471 does not prescribe a particular architectural method or life cycle, but may be used within a variety of such processes. In this paper, I provide an overview of IEEE P1471, describe its conceptual framework, and investigate the issues of applying the UML to meet the requirements of IEEE P1471. Keywords: IEEE P1471, architectural description, multiple views, view- points, Unified Modeling Language 1 Introduction The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is rapidly maturing into the de facto standard for modeling of software-intensive systems. Standardized by the Object Management Group (OMG) in November 1997, it is being adopted by many organizations, and being supported by numerous tool vendors. At present, there is much interest in using the UML for architectural descrip- tion: the techniques by which architects sketch, capture, model, document and analyze architectural knowledge and decisions about software-intensive systems. Such techniques enable architects to record what they are doing, modify or ma- nipulate candidate architectures, reuse portions of existing architectures, and communicate architectural information to others. These descriptions may the be used to analyze and reason about the architecture { possibly with automated support.

  • 73 Metadata Interchange in Service Based Architecture
    UDC:681.324 Review paper METADATA INTERCHANGE IN SERVICE BASED ARCHITECTURE Alma Butkovi Tomac Nagravision Kudelski group, Cheseaux / Lausanne [email protected] Dražen Tomac Cambridge Technology Partners, Genève [email protected] Abstract: Metadata is important factor for understanding, controlling and planning in complex information systems both from technical and business perspective. However its usage is often limited due to opposing or non-existent standards. The article discusses current state of meta model standards and shows new possibilities for meta data interchange based on XML as de facto standard for data interchange and increasing acceptance of web services architecture. Keywords: metadata, web services, XMI, CWM. 1. INTRODUCTION Term “meta” comes from old Greek work representing after, next, with; Latin word denoting something transcendental or beyond nature. Applying the prefix meta denotes more comprehensive or transcendent then the base itself. Meta data transcends the data in a way that it describes or references more than individual data instance: it provides domain, format, context of the data, data source, business related rule etc. Most common short definitions on metadata say: Meta data is data about data. This definition does not describe meta data in its whole scope. To quote [4]:” Meta data is all physical data (contained in software and other media) and knowledge (contained in employees and various media) from inside and outside an organization, including information about the physical data, technical and business processes, rules and constraints of the data, and structures of the data used by a corporation.” 2. METADATA SIGNIFICANCE Although metadata significance is widely recognized and important in information systems, it gains on its importance for data warehouse projects, business intelligence and semantic web.

  • Pivotpoint-Sparx Partnership Promotes Model-Based Systems
    PivotPoint-Sparx Partnership Promotes Model-Based Systems Engineering with SysML PivotPoint Technology and Sparx Systems today announced a technology partnership that will combine their complementary strengths in SysML training and tools for systems engineers. PivotPoint announced that its “SysML Distilled™ with Enterprise Architect™” workshop is immediately available, and will use Sparx’s new MDG Technology for SysML™ product. Fallbrook, California (PRWEB) - October 9, 2006 -- PivotPoint Technology and Sparx Systems today announced a technology partnership to promote model-based systems engineering with the Systems Modeling Language (SysML). SysML is the new domain-specific modeling language for systems engineering applications that was adopted by the Object Management Group as OMG SysML™ in July 2006, and is attracting users among systems engineers worldwide. Under the agreement, PivotPoint will be Sparx’s primary partner for training and consulting services that use Sparx’s new SysML product (MDG Technology for SysML™), which was released last week. PivotPoint showed its readiness to partner by announcing the immediate availability of a new “SysML Distilled™ with Enterprise Architect™” workshop, which combines both SysML language and tool training. SysML extends the Unified Modeling Language (UML), the industry standard for specifying software-intensive systems, so that it can also specify hardware, processes, personnel, and facilities. Systems engineers who want to follow a model-based systems engineering process gain at least two important advantages in using SysML. First, SysML is a smaller language than UML 2.0 since it has fewer diagrams and constructs, so it is easier for engineers to learn and apply. Second, SysML adds to the semantic expressiveness of UML with two new diagrams for defining requirements and parametric constraints, which systems engineers need to fully specify complex systems.

  • Designing Universal Chemical Markup (UCM) Through the Reusable Methodology Based on Analyzing Existing Related Formats
    Designing Universal Chemical Markup (UCM) through the reusable methodology based on analyzing existing related formats Background: In order to design concepts for a new general-purpose chemical format we analyzed the strengths and weaknesses of current formats for common chemical data. While the new format is discussed more in the next article, here we describe our software s t tools and two stage analysis procedure that supplied the necessary information for the n i r development. The chemical formats analyzed in both stages were: CDX, CDXML, CML, P CTfile and XDfile. In addition the following formats were included in the first stage only: e r P CIF, InChI, NCBI ASN.1, NCBI XML, PDB, PDBx/mmCIF, PDBML, SMILES, SLN and Mol2. Results: A two stage analysis process devised for both XML (Extensible Markup Language) and non-XML formats enabled us to verify if and how potential advantages of XML are utilized in the widely used general-purpose chemical formats. In the first stage we accumulated information about analyzed formats and selected the formats with the most general-purpose chemical functionality for the second stage. During the second stage our set of software quality requirements was used to assess the benefits and issues of selected formats. Additionally, the detailed analysis of XML formats structure in the second stage helped us to identify concepts in those formats. Using these concepts we came up with the concise structure for a new chemical format, which is designed to provide precise built-in validation capabilities and aims to avoid the potential issues of analyzed formats.

  • Linking Nwchem and Avogadro with the Syntax and Semantics of Chemical Markup Language Wibe a De Jong1*†, Andrew M Walker2† and Marcus D Hanwell3†
    de Jong et al. Journal of Cheminformatics 2013, 5:25 http://www.jcheminf.com/content/5/1/25 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access From data to analysis: linking NWChem and Avogadro with the syntax and semantics of Chemical Markup Language Wibe A de Jong1*†, Andrew M Walker2† and Marcus D Hanwell3† Abstract Background: Multidisciplinary integrated research requires the ability to couple the diverse sets of data obtained from a range of complex experiments and computer simulations. Integrating data requires semantically rich information. In this paper an end-to-end use of semantically rich data in computational chemistry is demonstrated utilizing the Chemical Markup Language (CML) framework. Semantically rich data is generated by the NWChem computational chemistry software with the FoX library and utilized by the Avogadro molecular editor for analysis and visualization. Results: The NWChem computational chemistry software has been modified and coupled to the FoX library to write CML compliant XML data files. The FoX library was expanded to represent the lexical input files and molecular orbitals used by the computational chemistry software. Draft dictionary entries and a format for molecular orbitals within CML CompChem were developed. The Avogadro application was extended to read in CML data, and display molecular geometry and electronic structure in the GUI allowing for an end-to-end solution where Avogadro can create input structures, generate input files, NWChem can run the calculation and Avogadro can then read in and analyse the CML output produced. The developments outlined in this paper will be made available in future releases of NWChem, FoX, and Avogadro. Conclusions: The production of CML compliant XML files for computational chemistry software such as NWChem can be accomplished relatively easily using the FoX library.
