“…Such models are then transformed into Petri nets-based formal models and system invariants into linear temporal logic. In [9], authors propose a mapping process of static and dynamic aspects, described by UML class diagram and UML state and communication diagrams respectively, of object-oriented systems to Maude concurrent object-oriented systems. The so developed models properties are verified using Maude LTL model checker.…”

“…Model Checking [9] is a formal verification technique using a system abstract model to determine whether a series of properties are satisfied by the considered system. A model checker is an automatic tool that confronts two descriptions of system behavior, one being considered as the required behavior and the other the actual design [10].…”

Many approaches on context-aware systems specification have been proposed in the literature. However, the absence or poor representation of contextual information and its relationships with system entities in these approaches usually leads to low-precision and irrelevant results. The aim of this paper is to promote the ability to specify and verify contextaware systems. Our proposed modeling methodology exploits Maude reflection and meta-programming to define a domain specific language for context-aware systems specification and adopts Maude model checker to verify system inherent properties. Moreover, a runtime environment implementing the proposed model is developed for pervasive context-aware systems execution.

Abstract-UML is a standard modeling language with an open notation and several concepts to be widely used in software modeling. However UML suffers from a lack of formal semantics. So, their models still need to be formally checked against incoherencies or inconsistencies. To reach this goal we propose in this paper, a framework and a tool based on graph transformation allowing an automatic translation of some UML diagrams to equivalent Maude formal specifications. To realize this automatic mapping we use UML Class diagram formalism to define three meta-models. The first one for Class Diagram, the second for State Machine Diagram and the third for the Communication Diagram. Then, we propose a graph grammar to generate Maude specifications of the UML diagrams based on theses meta-models. The meta-modeling tool AToM 3 is used to produce our visual modeling tool according to the proposed UML meta-models. An example is presented to illustrate our approach.

“…For activity diagrams, which basically are parallel specs already, Petri nets [32] [31] and CSP [9] [10] [11] are often used as the spec language. The goals are manifold: define a precise formal semantics for diagrams [33] [10] [34]; perform consistency checking and refinement checking of diagrams [30] [9]; perform modelchecking of application-specific behavioral properties on diagrams [30] [11] [35]. In contrast, our modeling goal is different, our focus is on object interaction, and our natural input are sequence diagrams.…”

Abstract-We describe an automated approach for detecting concurrency defects from design diagrams of a software, in particular, sequence diagrams. From a given sequence diagram, we automatically infer a formal, parallel specification that generalizes the communication behavior that is designed informally and incompletely in the diagram. We model-check the parallel specification against generic concurrency defect patterns. No additional specification of the software is needed. We present several case-studies to evaluate our approach. The results show that our approach is technically feasible, and effective in detecting nasty concurrency defects at the design level.
