Translating UML State Machines to Coloured Petri Nets Using Acceleo: A Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
UML state machines are widely used to specify dynamic systems behaviours. However its semantics is described informally, thus preventing the application of model checking techniques that could guarantee the system safety. In a former work, we proposed a formalisation of non-concurrent UML state machines using coloured Petri nets, so as to allow for formal verification. In this paper, we report our experience to implement this translation in an automated manner using the model-totext transformation tool Acceleo. Whereas Acceleo provides interesting features that facilitated our translation process, it also suffers from limitations uneasy to overcome.

Availability evaluation of Software architecture of object oriented Style using coloured Petri nets
Software architecture is one of the most fundamental products in the process of software development in the areas of behavioral or non- behavioral features like availability or transformability change. There are different ways to evaluate software architecture one of which is the creation of application model. An executable model of software architecture is an official description of architectu...
متن کاملTransforming Fuzzy State Diagram to Fuzzy Petri net
UML is known as one of the most common methods in software engineering. Since this language is semi-formal, many researches and efforts have been performed to transform this language into formal methods including Petri nets. Thus, the operation of verification and validation of the qualitative and nonfunctional parameters could be achieved with more ability. Since the majority of the real world...

متن کاملQuantitative evaluation of UML state machines using stochastic Petri nets
Todays technical systems tend to be very complex and usually are embedded in an asynchronous, concurrent, and distributed world. Besides the functional correctness of a system the observation of aspects like dependability, reliability, and timeliness becomes mandatory. Cost-awareness plays also an important role. It is desirable to detect incorrect and inefficient behavior in the very early sta...
متن کاملTranslation of UML Models to Object Coloured Petri Nets with a view to Analysis
Higher level Petri Nets that employ object oriented concepts have recently drawn the attention of researchers for use in formalizing UML in order to carryout dynamic analysis and simulation for complex software systems. This paper presents a method for constructing Petri Net models from UML models based on Object Coloured Petri Nets (OCPN). This method results in a Petri net model consisting of...
