Integrating the Structured Analysis and Design Models: a Category-Theoretic Approach
نویسنده
چکیده
Quite a number of models have been proposed under the name of structured analysis and design. It has been pointed out, however, that there is no common theoretical framework among them. Transformation of a specification from one model to another, although often recommended by authors, can only be done manually. A category-theoretic approach is proposed in this paper. As a result, development of structured specifications can be assisted through structured tasks and morphisms, and the integration of structured models can be achieved through functors and free categories. Ke ywords and phrases: category theory, structured analysis, structured design CR categories: D.2.1, D.3.1, G.2, K.6.3

متن کاملIntegrating the Structured Analysis and Design Models: an Initial Algebra Approach
Numerous models have been proposed under the name of structured systems analysis and design. Because of the lack of a common theoretical framework, the transition from one model to another is arbitrary and can only be done manually. An initial algebra approach is proposed to integrate the structured models. The algebra defined can be mapped through homomorphisms to Yourdon structure charts and ...
