Modeling and Verification of Manufacturing Systems: A Domain-Specific Formalization of UML
نویسنده
چکیده
This article presents a formalization of parts of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) w.r.t. the domain of modeling time-dependant manufacturing systems. The formalization approach is based upon a set of identified general formalization steps. We investigate the applicability of UML class diagrams, Statecharts, and UML’s textual Object Constraint Language (OCL) to model manufacturing systems and specify required time-dependent system properties. We then define a formal semantics for the utilized UML modeling elements and the extensions we have to make due to the considered domain. Corresponding mappings to formal languages allow to verify whether a domain-specific UML model satisfies required temporal properties.

Mapping Sequence diagram in Fuzzy UML to Fuzzy Petri Net
This ability in fuzzy UML, practically leaves the customers and market’s need without response in this important and vital area. Here, the available sequence diagrams in fuzzy UML will map into fuzzy Petri net. However, the formal models ability will be added to the Semi-formal fuzzy UML. This formalization will add the automatic processing ability to the Semi-formal fuzzy UML. Further more, t...
متن کاملRetrieval by Construction: a Traceability Technique to Support Verification and Validation of Uml Formalizations
Recently, there has been growing interest in formalizing UML, thereby enabling rigorous analysis of its many graphical diagrams. Two obstacles currently limit the adoption and use of UML formalizations in practice. First is the need to verify the consistency of artifacts under formalization. Second is the need to validate formalization approaches against domain-specific requirements. Techniques...
متن کاملDesign and Verification of Industrial Logic Controllers with UML and Statecharts
The paper describes a methodological framework that aims to apply formal design and verification techniques to the domain of Logic Control and Supervision for Manufacturing Systems. The methodology is based on a Object-Oriented approach, supported by a syntactical and semantical adaptation of the semi-formal software specification languages UML and Statecharts. The modeling languages has been s...
متن کاملFormalizing UML Class Diagrams in PVS
The Unified Modeling Language (UML) [1] is a language for specifying, visualizing and documenting object-oriented systems. It serves as a standard OO modeling notation and has powerful tool supports like Rational Rose [2]. It became popular among the industrial community mainly because it provides visual, intuitively appealing graphical notations and structuring mechanisms. However, a major dra...
متن کاملFormalization of UML Statechart Models Using Concurrent Regular Expressions
The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is widely used in the software development process for specification of system based on the object-oriented paradigm. Thought the current version of UML is semi-formal, it is difficult to determine whether the model is consistent, unambiguous, or complete. This paper proposes the transformation rules for formalizing UML statechart diagrams. The target languag...
