From UML Models to Graph Transformation Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present an approach that allows to validate properties of UML models. The approach is based on an integrated semantics for central parts of the UML. We formally cover UML use case, class, object, statechart, collaboration, and sequence diagrams. Additionally full OCL is supported in the common UML fashion. Our semantics is based on the translation of a UML model into a graph transformation system consisting of graph transformation rules and a working graph that represents the system state. By applying the rules on the working graph, the evolution of the modeled system is simulated.

Aspect Oriented UML to ECORE Model Transformation
With the emerging concept of model transformation, information can be extracted from one or more source models to produce the target models. The conversion of these models can be done automatically with specific transformation languages. This conversion requires mapping between both models with the help of dynamic hash tables. Hash tables store reference links between the elements of the source...
متن کاملA Meta-Modeling and Graph Grammar Approach for Modeling and analysis of e-entrepreneurship systems
UML provides standard abstractions to simplify the documentation, understanding, and maintenance of object oriented complex software systems. UML sequence diagrams are used to describe the behaviors of systems. However, UML is a semi-formal language that lacks tools for analysis and validation of user requirements. In other hand, Petri Nets models are tools for the validation and performance an...
متن کاملSoftware Performance Evaluation: Graph Grammar-based Transformation of UML Design Models into Performance Models
The quality of many software intensive systems is determined to a large extent by their performance characteristics, such as response time and throughput. The developers of such systems should be able to assess and understand the performance effects of various design decisions starting at an early stage, when changes are easy and less expensive, and continuing throughout the software life cycle...
متن کاملOn translating UML models into graph transformation systems
In this paper we present a concept of a rigorous approach that provides a formal semantics for a fundamental subset of UML. This semantics is derived by translating a given UML model into a graph transformation system, allowing modelers to actually execute their UML model. The graph transformation system comprises graph transformation rules and a working graph which represents the current state...
متن کاملOn the Use of Graph Transformation in the Modeling and Verification of Dynamic Behavior in UML Models
The use of the UML specification language for modelling dynamic behaviors of systems is very widespread. UML Statecharts and Collaboration diagrams are widely used to model dynamic behaviors of systems. However, the lack of firm semantics for the UML modeling notations makes the detection of behavioral inconsistencies difficult in the initial phases of development. The use of formal methods mak...
