Rose/Architect: a tool to visualize architecture
نویسندگان
چکیده
Rational Rose is a graphical software modeling tool, using the Unified Modeling Language (UML) as its primary notation. It offers an open API that allows the development of additional functionality (“add-ins”). In this paper, we describe Rose/Architect, a RoseTM “add-in” used to visualize architecturally-significant elements in a system’s design, developed jointly by University of Southern California (USC) and Rational Software. Rose/Architect can be used in forward engineering, marking architecturally significant elements as they are designed and extracting architectural views as necessary. But it can be even more valuable in reverse engineering, i.e., extracting missing key architectural information from a complex model. This model may have been reverseengineered from source code using the Rose reverse engineering capability.

متن کاملTool-Driven Technology Transfer to Support Software Architecture Decisions
Software architecture design decisions are key drivers for the success of software systems. Despite awareness for their criticality, software architects often rationalize and document their decisions poorly. On this behalf, ABB Corporate Research initiated a technology transfer project to integrate an architecture decision framework from the University of Groningen into ABB software development...

متن کاملTR-Architect: DfT and Test Support for SOC Designers
This paper deals with the design of on-chip architectures for testing large system chips (SOCs) for manufacturing defects in a modular fashion. These test architectures consist of wrappers and Test Access Mechanisms (TAMs). We have developed a tool called TR-ARCHITECT for test architecture design. The tool efficiently determines the number of TAMs and their widths, the assignment of modules to ...
متن کاملAnalyzing and Visualizing Whole Program Architectures
This paper describes our work to develop new tool support for analyzing and visualizing the architecture of complete large-scale (millions or more lines of code) programs. Our approach consists of (i) creating a compact, accurate representation of a whole C or C++ program, (ii) analyzing the program in this representation, and (iii) visualizing the analysis results with respect to the program’s...
