Nowadays models, rather than code, become the key artifacts of software development. Consequently, this raises the level of requirements for modeling languages on which modeling practitioners should rely in their work. A minor inconsistency of a modeling l ...
We present an approach to the definition of an object-oriented modeling paradigm done in the scope of general system modeling. The paradigm includes a formally defined metamodel and its supporting philosophical and natural science foundations. The metamode ...
This paper presents an approach for formalizing the RM-ODP (Reference Model for Open Distributed Processing), an ISO and ITU standard. The goal of this formalization is to clarify the RM-ODP modeling framework to make it more accessible to modelers such as ...
These paper presents an approach for integrating UML with an ADL. The integration would encompass the advantages of both languages. It would give formal semantics to UML constructs and thus would provide UML with a theoretical foundation for architecture m ...
The development of business and information systems requires a significant amount of modeling. The current modeling languages and tools have difficulties supporting the modeling of systems spanning through multiple organizational levels. The use of inadequ ...
The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of our approach for modeling enterprise web applications (EWA), which is use case driven and uses UML as the modeling language. Our approach delivers a conceptual, logical model of the application, which ...
This paper presents an approach for formalizing the RM-ODP (Reference Model for Open Distributed Processing), an ISO and ITU standard. The goal of this formalization is to clarify the RM-ODP modeling framework to make it more accessible to modelers such as ...
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 th ...
We review systems that support the management of collaborative interaction, and propose a classification framework built on a simple model of coaching. Our framework distinguishes between mirroring systems, which display basic actions to collaborators, met ...
Standardization experts in object modelling are having difficulties with defining the concept of role; for example, they are not sure of whether role is a type or an instance concept. This issue is a source of confusion in the UML standard, and prevents IS ...
