“…The Behavior Driven Development [52] software approach puts a strong focus on explicitly stating the behavior of system components. In particular, Behavior Driven Development focuses on understanding the behavior of the components defined as simple given-when-then scenarios.…”

SUMMARYA strong separation of concerns is necessary in order to make the design of domain-specific functional components independent from cross-cutting concerns, such as concurrent access to the shared resources of the execution platform. Native coordination mechanisms, such as locks and monitors, allow developers to address these issues. However, such solutions are not modular, they are complex to design, debug and maintain. We present the JavaBIP framework that allows developers to think on a higher level of abstraction and clearly separate the functional and coordination aspects of the system behavior. It implements the principles of the BIP component framework rooted in rigorous operational semantics. It allows the coordination of existing concurrent software components in an exogenous manner, relying exclusively on annotations, component APIs and external specification files. We introduce the annotation and specification syntax of JavaBIP and illustrate its use on realistic examples; present the architecture of our implementation, which is modular and easily extensible; provide and discuss performance evaluation results.

“…This is further enhanced by including terms from the business domain in the domain-specific language. Solis and Wang (2011) reviewed the available literature and a number of tools for behaviour-driven development in 2011. They found that the area was still under development and that the domain-specific languages supported by the tools limited the requirements expressiveness.…”

“…what a system should do, specified so that both the developers and the domain experts would understand. BDD enables users to describe the required system behaviour as executable user stories and the acceptance criteria as executable scenarios attached to these [77,78]. The user stories should have a clear and explicit title, a short introductory narrative section that specifies Who (As a), Which (I want) and What (So that) and acceptance criteria or scenarios which would describe each specific case of the narrative [76].…”

This paper proposes Lu-Lu as an add-on architecture to open MMOGs and social network games, which has been developed to utilise a key set of ingredients that underline collaborative decision making games as reported within the research literature: personalisation, team matching, non-optimal decision making, leading, decisiveness index, scoring, levelling, and multiple stages. The implementation of Lu-Lu is demonstrated as an add on to the classic supply chain beer game, including customisation of Lu-Lu to facilitate information exchange through the Facebook games platform, e.g. Graph API and Scores API. Performance assessment of Lu-Lu using Behaviour Driven Development suggests a successful integration of all key ingredients within Lu-Lu's architecture, yielding autonomous behaviour that improves both player enjoyment and decision making.
