whitepaper While several important new modeling capabilities were added -- such as the ability to more accurately capture software architectures -- the dominant characteristic of this revision is the heightened precision of the language definition that...

whitepaper While UML is rapidly becoming the industry standard for modeling, its standard definition does not contain a precise semantics. The semantics of UML is defined by a textual description coming with some meta-modeling description (an of abstract...

whitepaper The Object Constraint Language OCL is an integral part of UML, the Unified Modeling Language standard. It has been added to Rational's UML core as a logic-based sublanguage for the definition of integrity constraints (invariants) on class diagrams...

whitepaper One of the dominant players in software design is the unified modeling language, UML, a language for specifying, visualizing, constructing and documenting software artifacts. This paper examines the incorporation of MAC into the unified modeling...

whitepaper This paper discusses the suitability of UML, the popular OO modeling language, for defining and designing real-time and embedded systems. The complexity and size of the average real-time system is increasing rapidly.

whitepaper This paper studies the definition of formal semantics for a fragment of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) that covers some static and dynamic UML concepts. The idea of the considered methodological approach is based on the formalization of an...

whitepaper The Unified Modeling Language has become the OMG standard in (object-oriented) software modeling. This hinders its use in practice since much time is wasted on clarifying a common understanding of the modeling artifacts.

whitepaper You discover this right from the very beginning with its advice for effective requirements engineering, showing how to apply the industry-standard technique of UML use case modeling in conjunction with additional techniques such as essential user...

whitepaper Language), a general language for modeling and solving dynamic decision problems. Based on a unifying task definition and a common vocabulary for the relevant decision problems, this new paradigm balances the trade-off between model transparency...
