摘要

MDE的日益普及导致了更大的模型和模型转换的创建,因此在一个容易出错的任务中转换MDE工件的规范。因此,为了保证基于mde的开发过程的可靠性,需要保证模型质量和模型无错误的机制。形式化方法在软件和硬件系统的验证中已经证明了它们的价值。然而,采用形式化方法作为确保模型正确性的有效替代方法会因问题的内部复杂性而受到损害。为了规避这种复杂性,通常会施加一些限制,比如减少模型中可能出现的构造类型,或者将验证过程从自动转换为用户辅助。由于我们认为这些限制对采用形式化方法是适得其反的,因此在本文中,我们提出了EMFtoCSP,这是一种使用约束逻辑编程作为底层形式化的EMF模型的全自动,可决定和表达验证的新工具。

EMFtoCSP: A tool for the lightweight verification of EMF models
The increasing popularity of MDE results in the creation of larger models and model transformations, hence converting the specification of MDE artefacts in an error-prone task. Therefore, mechanisms to ensure quality and absence of errors in models are needed to assure the reliability of the MDE-based development process. Formal methods have proven their worth in the verification of software and hardware systems. However, the adoption of formal methods as a valid alternative to ensure model correctness is compromised for the inner complexity of the problem. To circumvent this complexity, it is common to impose limitations such as reducing the type of constructs that can appear in the model, or turning the verification process from automatic into user assisted. Since we consider these limitations to be counterproductive for the adoption of formal methods, in this paper we present EMFtoCSP, a new tool for the fully automatic, decidable and expressive verification of EMF models that uses constraint logic programming as the underlying formalism.
