Towards Architectural Modeling with UML Subsystems
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents an extension of the UML 1.4 metamodel that facilitates the description of software architectures. To this end, concepts like views, ports, connectors, and protocols are introduced, and the UML’s subsystem concept is adapted. The approach is inspired by ROOM and IEEE P1471, using an explicit metamodeling approach for clarity. This paper should be seen as input for the discussion on the UML 2.0

Turning UML-Subsystems into Architectural Units
In this paper, I show how the subsystem concept of UML may be adapted for architectural modeling. Previous approaches used stereotypes of UML’s class-concept instead. For greater conceptual clarity, I pursue an explicit metamodeling approach. However, the modifications I propose could be reformulated using only UML’s standard extension mechanisms, If that were desired. The present approach is i...
متن کاملFrom AOP to UML: Towards an Aspect-Oriented Architectural Modeling Approach
Capturing concerns that crosscut the boundaries of multiple components in software architecture descriptions is problematic. Standard description languages, such as UML, do not provide adequate means to understand and modularize such concerns, but aspect-oriented programming techniques do. This paper explores and analyzes the suitability of UML for aspect-oriented architectural modeling. It tak...
متن کاملTowards a UML Profile for Software Architecture Descriptions
To formally describe architectures of software systems, specific languages called Architecture Description Languages (ADLs) have been developed by academic institutions and research labs. However, more and more research and industrial projects are using the standard Unified Modeling Language (UML) for representing software architectures of systems. In this paper, we focus on how to extend the U...
متن کاملUsing the UML for Architectural Description
There is much interest in using the Unified Modeling Language (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 architect...
متن کاملModeling Multi-Agent Systems using UML
Tropos is a framework which offers an approach to guide the development of multi-agent systems (MAS). It relies on the i* notation to describe both requirements and architectural design. However, the use of i* as an architectural description language (ADL) is not suitable, since it presents some limitations to capture all the information required for designing MAS architectures. Recognizing tha...
