From UML Fondue to COOPN

1
From UML (Fondue) to COOPN

• An iterative approach applying MDA techniques

2
Outline

• Motivation and general approach
• Some background
• Fondue Specification
• The MDA approach
• Some steps towards the transformation
• Relationship between Fondue components and
  COOPN components
• Tools, tools and another process diagram
• Status report

3
Some Background

• Fondue
• What it provides
• Concept Model Defines the static structure of
  the information in the system
• Behavior Model Defines the Input and Output
  communication of the system
• Uses UML for notation (parts of different UML
  diagrams
• Concept Model ? Class Diagram
• Environment Model ? Collaboration Diagram
• Protocol Model ? State Diagram
• Operation Model ?(OCL)
• Describes operations by operation schemas which
  specify operations by pre- and post conditions
  using OCL
• The Fondue process can be outlined by a UML class
  diagram showing usage dependencies between the
  models

• Fondue - ebanking example
• Environment Model (messages from the user)

Some Background (5)

• MDA - Model Driven Architecture
• How models defined in one language can be
  transformed into models in other languages

8
Some steps towards transformation

• Describe CO-OPN as a MOF Model
• Use UML notation to define CO-OPN Meta Model
• Get XMIUML
• Convert XMIUML to XMIMOF
• Generate JMI from XMIMOF
• Use generated JMI to add and browse CO-OPN
  repositories

9
Some steps towards transformation

• Fondue is already described as a MOF Model

10
Some steps towards transformation

• Iteration describing COOPN in early stages

11
Some steps towards transformation

• Environment model ? 1 CO-OPN Context
• Operations ? methods of the context
• Output messages ? Gates

input

• Directly from
• the
• Metamodels

output
12
Some steps towards transformation

• Concept Model
• 1 Class ? 1 CO-OPN Class
• Name ? Name
• Attributes ? Places
• Access methods put, get, read
• Method put_a(x) a y -gt a x
• Gate get_a(x) a x -gt a x
• Gate read_a(x)a x -gt a x
• Associations as classes
• With source and target values
• Instantiation of AADT Bag
• For each class

• Directly from
• the
• Metamodels

14
Some steps towards transformation

• Operation Model
• Transform Fondue pre and post-conditions using
  OCL
• Operation Schemas ? (synchronization rules,
  algebraic equations)

• No standard
• approach available!
• Parse OCL and define clear
• transformation rules

Tools, tools and another process diagram

• Create Fondue Model
• Together Fondue pluggin
• Use JMI to load both Fondue and COOPN meta
  repositories
• Any Java IDE (e.g. IDEA)
• Add rules to perform transformation

Status report

• All set of SW in place
• COOPN Meta Model
