Extending UML-RT for Control System Modeling

Extending UML-RT for Control System Modeling

There is a growing interest in adopting object technologies for the development of real-time control systems. Several commercial tools, currently available, provide object-oriented modeling and design support for real-time control systems. While these products provide many useful facilities, such as visualization tools and automatic code generation, they are all weak in addressing the central c...

Extending UML for Multidimensional Modeling

Multidimensional (MD) modeling is the foundation of data warehouses, MD databases, and OLAP applications. In the last years, there have been some proposals to represent MD properties at the conceptual level. Nevertheless, none of them considers all multidimensional properties at both the structural and dynamic levels. In this paper, we present an object-oriented (OO) approach to accomplish the ...

Extending UML to GUI Modeling

Although the GUI is the most prominent part of a software system, GUI design, particularly GUI layout, i.e. dimensioning and arranging screen elements within a screen, is somewhat neglected by software development. While the interactional parts of user interfaces can be modeled using existing UML diagrams and elements, GUI layout cannot. Additionally, the work of graphic designers and its resul...

Extending UML for Modeling of Multimedia Applications

An analysis of how visual modeling of structure and dynamic behavior of a multimedia application differs from modeling conventional software yields that aspects of the graphical user interface and time-dynamic behavior ought to be integral parts of a coherent multimedia application model. In this sense, we extend the model-view-controller paradigm towards multimedia. As a result, we present OMM...
