    Agile modeling: A brief overview
    (Practical UML-based rigorous development methods - Countering or integrating the extremists, workshop of the pUML-group held together with the UML 2001, 2001) Ambler, Scott W.
    Agile Modeling (AM) is a practice-based methodology for effective modeling of software-based systems. Where the Unified Modeling Language (UML) defines a subset of the modeling techniques that software professionals require, AM defines practices that enables developers to model in an efficient and effective manner. This paper provides a brief overview of AM’s values, principles, and practices; defined what agile models are; and summarizes the scope of AM.

    Approaching a discrete-continuous UML: Tool support and formalization
    (Practical UML-based rigorous development methods - Countering or integrating the extremists, workshop of the pUML-group held together with the UML 2001, 2001) Stauner, Thomas; Pretschner, Alexander; Péter, István
    This paper presents HyROOM, a proposal for an extension of UML-like languages by continuous activities for the specification of mixed discrete-continuous, or hybrid, systems. Is is implemented in a CASE tool prototype based on the Real-time Object Oriented Modeling methodology. All vital parts of HyROOM's operational simulation semantics are mapped into HyCharts, a formal framework for hybrid systems. All essential concepts are discussed along the lines of parts of an industrial case study, a wire stretching plant. The semantics is the basis for validation and refinement techniques.

    An axiomatic formalization of UML models
    (Practical UML-based rigorous development methods - Countering or integrating the extremists, workshop of the pUML-group held together with the UML 2001, 2001) Aoki, Toshiaki; Tateishi, Takaaki; Katayama, Takuya
    Though it is widely recognized that object-oriented methodologies are most effective in developing large scale software, it is still dif cult to apply high level computer support to it, as current methodologies are informal, especially at their upstream phases. This means that we cannot expect sophisticated supports for checking consistency among analysis models and validating/verifying their appropriateness. As quality of analysis models determines that of succeeding design and implementation phases, formalization of the analysis phase is very important. In this paper, we propose a formal approach to analysis phase, consisting of (1)formal analysis models, (2)uni cation of the models, (3)an axiom system for consistency veri cation and (4)veri cation environment.

    Calculating with concepts: a technique for the development of business process support
    (Practical UML-based rigorous development methods - Countering or integrating the extremists, workshop of the pUML-group held together with the UML 2001, 2001) Dijkman, Remco M.; Ferreira Pires, Luís; Joosten, Stef M.M.
    This paper introduces the Calculating with Concepts (CC) technique, which has been developed to improve the precision of UML class diagrams and allows the formal reasoning based on these diagrams. This paper aims at showing the industrial benefits of using such a formal and rigorous approach to reason about business processes and software applications in the early phases of the software development process. The paper discusses how the CC technique can be used in the specification of business processes and in the development of their supporting software applications or tools. This paper also illustrates the use of the tech- nique with a realistic case study on tool integration.

    Catalytic modeling: UML meets XP
    (Practical UML-based rigorous development methods - Countering or integrating the extremists, workshop of the pUML-group held together with the UML 2001, 2001) Cameron Wills, Alan
    I have always been a strong believer and practitioner of the JFDI approach to development, which yields high morale, early identification of problems in design and of any misunderstandings of the requirements, and easily tracks changing needs as they occur. I applaud eXtreme Programming [Be00] for enunciating some excellent guiding principles that separate this approach from iterative hacking. And yet I also have always believed in using models to understand abstractions during the design; and to communicate them to others both during the design and afterwards. The one aspect of XP I’m not keen on is the disdain for documents and models other than those enshrined in the code and tests. Nevertheless, it’s undeniable that any documents separate from code and tests can and will get out of step with them, and will not be read. This position paper outlines some of my experience, as a consultant methodologist with a number of clients, in attempting to get the benefits of XP at the same time as those that follow from using modeling techniques.

    Conformance testing from UML specifications experience report1
    (Practical UML-based rigorous development methods - Countering or integrating the extremists, workshop of the pUML-group held together with the UML 2001, 2001) Bousquet, Lydie du; Martin, Hugues; Jézéquel, Jean-Marc
    UMLAUT is a framework for building tools dedicated to the manipulation of models described using the Unified Modeling Language (UML). TGV is a tool for the generation of conformance test suites for protocols. Both tools are connected so that it is possible to specify an application in UML and derive automatically some test cases. In this article, the integration of those tools in an industrial process is evaluated through a case study. This case study, proposed by Gemplus, is a Java Card applet: a classical electronic purse.

    Designing procedural 4GL applications through UML modeling
    (Practical UML-based rigorous development methods - Countering or integrating the extremists, workshop of the pUML-group held together with the UML 2001, 2001) Davidson, Shiri; Keren, Mila; Porat, Sara; Zodik, Gabi
    This paper presents a Unified Modeling Language (UML) model for VisualAge Generator (VG) business-oriented applications. This model was defined to bridge between two different models, the object-oriented UML design model and the VG programming model, which use a procedural high-level 4GL. We introduce a prototype tool named VG UML Modeler which is implemented as a Rational Rose Language Add-in for designing VG applications. This tool provides developers with the ability to create a UML model for VG applications, check its compatibility, and generate the appropriate VG 4GL entities. The paper describes a methodology of the design process for a sample application.

    A formal mapping between UML static models and algebraic specifications
    (Practical UML-based rigorous development methods - Countering or integrating the extremists, workshop of the pUML-group held together with the UML 2001, 2001) Favre, Liliana M.
    There are several reasons to specify UML models in a formal way The most important are to avoid inconsistencies and ambiguities and to do verification and forecasting of system properties. In this paper we propose a systematic approach to transform UML static models into algebraic specifications. We define the GSBLoo algebraic language to cope with concepts of UML. Firstly, we give a formal description for UML static models using GSBLoo. Then, we describe how to translate UML constructs to GSBLoo constructs. In particular, we show how to transform UML relations into GSBLoo . We propose a system of transformation rules to translate OCL constraints to GSBLoo.

    Formal redesign of UML class diagrams
    (Practical UML-based rigorous development methods - Countering or integrating the extremists, workshop of the pUML-group held together with the UML 2001, 2001) Kosiuczenko, Piotr
    In this paper we study a formal concept of redesign for object-oriented specifications. This concept corresponds to the UML notion of abstraction. The notion of refinement, which has been extensively studied also at the formal level, models well incremental approach where new requirements are added, but can not be changed. This assumption is usually not satisfied in software engineering process where permanent change is a constant factor. We study therefore a new notion which generalizes the notion of interpretation used in algebra. This notion is very flexible and allows us for comparison of different class diagrams even if one of them contains requirements excluded by another. To compare specifications, we map model elements in the first specification on the related model elements in the second specification. This mapping defines a UML trace; it can be lifted to the level of OCL as well as to the level of first order logic and then extended to an interpretation function. We also provide a formal foundation for our concepts and prove its soundness. We demonstrate the applicability of our approach in a series of examples.
