构件式体系结构模型映射的形式化语义

语义一致性是模型驱动开发中模型转换正确性的一个重要标准,但目前模型转换中语义特性保持的定义、描述和验证仍是一个尚未解决的难题.基于软件体系结构,利用范畴理论和代数规范形式化描述体系结构模型及其间的映射关系,使之具有精确的语义.体系结构模型的形式化语义用类型范畴图表来表示,态射合成被用来追踪构件模型之间的关联和映射,不同层次模型间的映射关系用态射和函子来形式化描述.以此为基础,进一步分析了模型转换应保持的语义特性.范畴理论支持图形化建模,可以使模型中的构件关系以及结构特征可视化,有利于对模型转换的理解和追踪.应用研究表明,该描述框架很好地把握了模型驱动开发的实质、过程和要求,为模型转换和模型驱动开发提供了新的认知、设计和语义计算的指导架构.

Formal verification of software source code through semi-automatic modeling

We describe the experience of modeling and formally verifying a software cache algorithm using the model checker RuleBase. Contrary to prevailing wisdom, we used a highly detailed model created directly from the C code itself, rather than a high-level abstract model.     

Model-driven development of interactive groupware systems: Integration into the software development process

Modeling interactive groupware systems is a complex and multi-disciplinary task. It is necessary to provide designers and engineers with a set of methods, notations and tools to specify the different aspects to consider when designing this type of systems. In this work we present a methodological framework based on the integration of several notations and processes for modeling some of these aspects, in particular: interaction, collaboration and functionality. The objective of this work is to provide a more complete support to the design of groupware systems, considering different viewpoints and modeling perspectives of the several stakeholders involved in the development of such applications.     

A model-driven approach for the derivation of architectural requirements of software product lines

The alignment of the software architecture and the functional requirements of a system is a demanding task because of the difficulty in tracing design elements to requirements. The four-step rule set (4SRS) is a unified modeling language (UML)-based model-driven method for single system development which provides support to the software architect in this task. This paper presents an evolution of the 4SRS method aimed at software product lines. In particular, we describe how to address the transformation of functional requirements (use cases) into component-based requirements for the product line architecture. The result is a UML-based model-driven method that can be applied in combination with metamodeling tools such as the eclipse modeling framework (EMF) to derive the architecture of software product lines. We present our approach in a practical way and illustrate it with an example. We also discuss how our proposals are related to the work of other authors.     

Model-Driven Development for scientific computing. Computations of RHEED intensities for a disordered surface. Part I

Scientific computing is the field of study concerned with constructing mathematical models, numerical solution techniques and with using computers to analyse and solve scientific and engineering problems. Model-Driven Development (MDD) has been proposed as a means to support the software development process through the use of a model-centric approach. This paper surveys the core MDD technology that was used to develop an application that allows computation of the RHEED intensities dynamically for a disordered surface.

Phys. Comm. 180 (2009) 2394Does the new version supersede the previous version?: NoNature of problem: An application that implements numerical simulations should be constructed according to the CSFAR rules: clear and well-documented, simple, fast, accurate, and robust. A clearly written, externally and internally documented program is much easier to understand and modify. A simple program is much less prone to error and is more easily modified than one that is complicated. Simplicity and clarity also help make the program flexible. Making the program fast has economic benefits. It also allows flexibility because some of the features that make a program efficient can be traded off for greater accuracy. Making the program fast also has the benefit of allowing longer calculations with better resolution. The compromise between speed and accuracy has always posted one of the most troublesome challenges for the programmer. Almost all advances in numerical analysis have come about trying to reach these twin goals. Change in the basic algorithms will give greater improvements in accuracy and speed than using special numerical tricks or changing programming language. A robust program works correctly over a broad spectrum of input data.Solution method: The computational model of the program is based on the use of a dynamical diffraction theory in which the electrons are taken to be diffracted by a potential, which is periodic in the dimension perpendicular to the surface. In the case of a disordered surface we can use the proportional model of the scattering potential, in which the potential of a partially filled layer is taken to be the product of the coverage of this layer and the potential of a fully filled layer:

嵌入式软件形式化建模方法

随着嵌入式系统在各行各业的普及,嵌入式系统也越来越复杂,为保证嵌入式系统正确性,研究从需求分析、系统设计到系统验证、代码自动生成统一建模方法尤为重要。针对以上问题,提出采用状态变迁矩阵（STM）对嵌入式软件进行建模,通过确认STM中的每个单元格保证软件的正确性,且在需求分析阶段更容易发现需求遗漏。针对单元格处理经常出现大量的逻辑判断问题,提出采用决策表（DT）模型对复杂多条件判断分支问题进行建模。在模型建立后进行验证,最后自动生成代码。通过对紧急制动控制建模实验,说明方法的正确性。     

Efficient SAT-based bounded model checking for software verification

This paper discusses our methodology for formal analysis and automatic verification of software programs. It is applicable to a large subset of the C programming language that includes pointer arithmetic and bounded recursion. We consider reachability properties, in particular whether certain assertions or basic blocks are reachable in the source code, or whether certain standard property violations can occur. We perform this analysis via a translation to a Boolean circuit representation based on modeling basic blocks. The program is then analyzed by a back-end SAT-based bounded model checker, where each unrolling is mapped to one step in a block-wise execution of the program.     

A synergistic model-driven approach for persistence modeling with UML

The Model Driven Development (MDD) approach proposes that models (and model-to-model transformations) play the main role on system development. However, there is not a consensual notation to model persistence based upon object-relational mapping frameworks: while UML lacks specific resources for persistence modeling, the entity-relationship model does not make reference to the dynamic concepts existing in UML.This paper proposes MD-JPA, a UML profile for persistence modeling based on the well-known Java Persistence API 2 (JPA) standard for object-relational mapping, pursuing the modeling of transient and persistent elements in a more coherent and synergistic way. This paper describes the main characteristics of MD-JPA as well as the way that models that adopt such profile can them be used to generate a Java implementation by the application of the proposed model transformations on a MDD approach. Finally, an open source tool was developed to make the results of this work available to the community.
