Software Abstractions for Description Logic Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
We explain the basics of description logics and tableau provers for reasoning with them. The implementation of tableau provers is a complicated matter and demanding from a software engineering point of view. We present and discuss their implementation in COMMON LISP and motivate and introduce some novel software abstractions for description logic system construction, which are embodied in the MIDELORA toolkit / framework.

Semantic Business Process Engineering
In this tutorial, we compare OWL-DL reasoning and Petri net analysis for validating refinement and grounding of business processes. (1) Process refinement: Like in software engineering, the implementation of a business process involves different interacting roles, such as business expert, analyst, process architect, and developer. Each role designs and refines different abstractions of the proc...
متن کاملBetter abstractions for reusable components & architectures
Software architecture (SA) is a crucial component of Model Driven Engineering (MDE), since it eases the communication and reuse of designs and components. However, existing languages (e.g., UML, AADL, SysML) are lacking many needed features. In particular, they provide rudimentary support for connectors, a first-class element in the components and connectors (C&C) architectural view and one of ...
متن کاملMay/Must Abstraction-Based Software Model Checking for Sound Verification and Falsification
Three-valued models, in which properties of a system are either true, false or unknown, have recently been advocated as a better representation for reactive program abstractions generated by automatic techniques such as predicate abstraction. Indeed, for the same cost, model checking three-valued abstractions, also called may/must abstractions, can be used to both prove and disprove any tempora...
متن کاملTowards a UML Profile for Software Architecture Descriptions
To formally describe architectures of software systems, specific languages called Architecture Description Languages (ADLs) have been developed by academic institutions and research labs. However, more and more research and industrial projects are using the standard Unified Modeling Language (UML) for representing software architectures of systems. In this paper, we focus on how to extend the U...
متن کاملA rule-based evaluation of ladder logic diagram and timed petri nets for programmable logic controllers
This paper describes an evaluation through a case study by measuring a rule-based approach, which proposed for ladder logic diagrams and Petri nets. In the beginning, programmable logic controllers were widely designed by ladder logic diagrams. When complexity and functionality of manufacturing systems increases, developing their software is becoming more difficult. Thus, Petri nets as a high l...
