Combination of Different Modelling Techniques for Software Engineering

Eckardt Holz (Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin)

Outline:
The application of models plays a fundamental role during the design and development of large and distributed software systems. Models do not only enable the developer to manage the complexity of such systems and to validate and verify the designs, but serve also for the communication between developers and for the documentation.
On the other side reality has shown that a single modelling language is not sufficient in many cases to support all the different purposes. The talk investigates when and how different modelling languages and techniques are combined during the development process. Building up on this classification three different strategies for a combination are presented and compared:
Translation
Language integration
Concept space based language cooperation.
The presentation concludes with a set of rules and principles for the evolution of existing or design of new software engineering modelling languages which are open a combination with other techniques.

16:30 - 17:30 Session 8: Future SDL

Chair: Joachim Fischer (Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin)

Short presentations (Holz, Reed and Sherrat) and workshop discussion

Objective:
To collect input for the further development of SDL and its relationship with the engineering process and other languages, and possibly reach consensus on the way forward.
