The Consistency Workbench: A Tool for Consistency Management in UML-Based Development
نویسندگان
چکیده
With the Unified Modeling Language becoming applied in diverse contexts, the ability of defining and checking customized consistency conditions is gaining increasing importance. In this paper, we introduce the Consistency Workbench for defining and establishing consistency in a UML-based development process.

Consistency Management Within Model-Based Object-Oriented Development of Components
The Unified Modeling Language (UML) favors the construction of models composed of several submodels, modeling the system components under development at different levels of abstraction and from different viewpoints. Currently, consistency of object-oriented models expressed in the UML is not defined in the UML language specification. This allows the construction of inconsistent UML models. Defi...
متن کاملTowards Explicit Behavioral Consistency Concepts in the UML
In this paper, we show how different behavioral consistency concepts can be formed for sequence diagrams and statecharts. Our approach relies on the partial translation of models into a semantic domain and on the definition of explicit consistency conditions. Partial translations and consistency conditions can be combined to form an explicit consistency concept. In order to make our approach ap...
متن کاملAutomatically Generated Case Workbenches: a Preliminary Case Study
In this article we analyse a workbench for the analysis and design of web applications automatically generated from a visual-oriented meta-CASE. This tool suitably exploits UML metamodelling and process modelling to visually specify the target workbench, and employs visual language generation systems for their deployment. The generated workbench consists of a visual environment which includes k...
متن کاملExploiting Visual Languages Generation and UML Meta Modeling to Construct Meta-CASE Workbenches
In the paper we propose an approach for the construction of meta-CASE workbenches. The approach is based on the technology of visual language generation systems and on UML meta modeling. Visual modeling environments are generated starting from UML class diagrams specifying abstract syntax of the underlying visual language. The meta-CASE generates a workbench by integrating a set of visual model...
متن کاملCQV-UML Tool: a tool for managing the impact of change on UML models
An automated change impact analysis and management approach is vital to handle the complexity of adapting software during its evolution. Such an approach reduces the maintenance cost and provides for adequate decision making when confronted with the choice of accepting or ignoring changes. This paper presents a change impact management approach between UML models. It verifies the consistency an...
