“…One approach to addressing this problem is to enforce correspondence by generating code from the architectural model or by forcing developers to implement against a specific code library, which can then be used to provide some guarantees (e.g., [1,8,10]). Another approach is to use static code analysis techniques to determine the architecture of the code, subject to some constraints about code modularization and code patterns [5,6,7].…”

“…In other words, the concept of association cannot be implemented directly in languages like Java or C++, and needs special design patterns. Creating the latter is an issue and may be non-trivial as demonstrated in [1,16,14]. In addition, these works differ in their understanding of what associations and their properties are, and how to implement them.…”

“…* and their usage had been discussed in [11]; a few works had focused on implementation in the context of forward [14] or reverse [16] engineering. These works became outdated after the acceptance of UML2, in which the technical aspects of the construct are essentially reworked.…”

Abstract. Association between classes is a central construct in OO modeling. However, precise semantics of associations has not been defined, and only the most basic types are implemented in modern forward and reverse engineering tools. In this paper, we present a novel mathematical framework and build a precise semantics for several association constructs, whose implementation has been considered problematic. We also identify a number of patterns for using associations in practical applications, which cannot be modeled (reverse engineered) in UML.

“…Womble [129] and Chava [137] both use a static analysis to automatically extract object models for Java programs. Both tools use information from the class and field declarations; Womble also uses a set of heuristics to generate conjectures regarding associations between classes, field multiplicities, and mutability.…”

SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES ABSTRACTThe goal of our research was to develop technologies and techniques in support of real-time systems for the defense community. Our research focused on Real-Time Java implementation and analysis techniques. Real-Time Java is important for the defense community because it holds out the promise of enabling developers to apply COTS Java technology to specialized military embedded systems. It also promises to allow the defense community to utilize a large Java-literate workforce for building defense systems.Our research has delivered several techniques that may make Real-Time Java a better platform for developing embedded systems. These techniques include ways to implement scoped memories (a key Real-Time Java construct) without the possibility of introducing unexpected and potentially catastrophic delays in the execution of real-time threads, analyses that ensure the correct use of Real-Time Java scoped memories, analyses that compute how much memory is required to execute a given Real-Time Java program (potentially helping developers calculate how much memory must be including in a given system to ensure that the system will execute without running out of memory), and optimizations that reduce the amount of memory required to execute a Real-Time Java program.
