Distributed Synchronous Collaborative Modeling Supporting System for UML Diagrams
نویسندگان
چکیده
With the advancement of network technology and globalization of business, distributed software development has become in common. Along with this trend, distributed synchronous collaborative modeling supporting systems were proposed. This study points out two issues traditional systems have; they don’t relate conversations with model diagrams, and they can’t replay histories of modeling by associating contents of conversations with elements of model diagrams. The authors developed a distributed synchronous collaborative modeling supporting system for UML diagrams, called Libra-on-Chat, which solved the issues. As the result of experiment, the system allows participants to focus on elements in a diagram under discussion. It also enables developers to grasp design rationale in review.

UML diagrams have become the de-facto standard for the visual modeling of software systems. The creation and discussion of these diagrams is a critical factor impacting the quality of the artifacts under development. Traditionally, facilitating the collaboration of globally distributed team members with heterogeneous system environments has been a costly and time-consuming endeavor. This paper ...

Various object-oriented methodology is advocated in recent years. The Unified Modeling Language (UML), which is the unification modeling language of those notation, is becoming leading now. This paper proposes a supporting method of diagrams generation with the transformation rules in UML to draw diagrams eliminated contradiction in a short time by using common elements which other diagrams hav...
متن کاملIntegrating Informal and Formal Approaches to Requirements Modeling and Analysis
The Unified Modeling Language (UML) comprises several different notations for object-oriented modeling with no formal semantics attached to the individual diagrams. We have developed a generic framework for formalizing a subset of UML diagrams in terms of various formal languages, with a focus on embedded systems. We have formalized UML in terms of Promela, thus enabling analysis of the UML dia...
