摘要

目的管理组件资源对为网络-物理系统（CPS）设计的系统架构的成功起着关键作用。执行候选组件的选择以满足特定应用程序的需求还包括识别体系结构组件、网络和物理过程之间的关系，因为系统特性和属性是相关的。因此，设计/方法论/方法使用模型驱动工程（MDE）方法是一项宝贵的资产。在此背景下，作者提出了所谓的系统架构本体论（SAO），它允许表示系统架构（SA），以及CPS应用程序的关系、特征和属性。FindingsSAO使用了一个受体系结构分析和设计语言（AADL）标准启发的通用词汇。为了证明SAO的适用性，本文通过本体Web语言（OWL）将其作为MDE方法与基于本体的建模相结合。从基于SAO的OWL模型中，作者提出了一种模型转换工具来提取AADL代码中与体系结构建模相关的数据，允许创建组件库和属性集模型。除了通过自动生成许多行代码来节省设计时间外，这种代码不太容易出错，也就是说，没有不一致性。原创性/价值为了说明这一建议，作者在航空航天领域提出了一个应用SAO及其转换工具的案例研究。结果，一个包含74个组件和一组相关属性的库被自动生成，以支持架构设计和评估。

The systems architecture ontology (SAO): an ontology-based design method for cyber–physical systems

PurposeManaging components' resources plays a critical role in the success of systems' architectures designed for cyber–physical systems (CPS). Performing the selection of candidate components to pursue a specific application's needs also involves identifying the relationships among architectural components, the network and the physical process, as the system characteristics and properties are related.Design/methodology/approachUsing a Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) approach is a valuable asset therefore. Within this context, the authors present the so-called Systems Architecture Ontology (SAO), which allows the representation of a system architecture (SA), as well as the relationships, characteristics and properties of a CPS application.FindingsSAO uses a common vocabulary inspired by the Architecture Analysis and Design Language (AADL) standard. To demonstrate SAO's applicability, this paper presents its use as an MDE approach combined with ontology-based modeling through the Ontology Web Language (OWL). From OWL models based on SAO, the authors propose a model transformation tool to extract data related to architectural modeling in AADL code, allowing the creation of a components' library and a property set model. Besides saving design time by automatically generating many lines of code, such code is less error-prone, that is, without inconsistencies.Originality/valueTo illustrate the proposal, the authors present a case study in the aerospace domain with the application of SAO and its transformation tool. As result, a library containing 74 components and a related set of properties are automatically generated to support architectural design and evaluation.

期刊介绍： Applied Computing and Informatics aims to be timely in disseminating leading-edge knowledge to researchers, practitioners and academics whose interest is in the latest developments in applied computing and information systems concepts, strategies, practices, tools and technologies. In particular, the journal encourages research studies that have significant contributions to make to the continuous development and improvement of IT practices in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and other countries. By doing so, the journal attempts to bridge the gap between the academic and industrial community, and therefore, welcomes theoretically grounded, methodologically sound research studies that address various IT-related problems and innovations of an applied nature. The journal will serve as a forum for practitioners, researchers, managers and IT policy makers to share their knowledge and experience in the design, development, implementation, management and evaluation of various IT applications. Contributions may deal with, but are not limited to: • Internet and E-Commerce Architecture, Infrastructure, Models, Deployment Strategies and Methodologies. • E-Business and E-Government Adoption. • Mobile Commerce and their Applications. • Applied Telecommunication Networks. • Software Engineering Approaches, Methodologies, Techniques, and Tools. • Applied Data Mining and Warehousing. • Information Strategic Planning and Recourse Management. • Applied Wireless Computing. • Enterprise Resource Planning Systems. • IT Education. • Societal, Cultural, and Ethical Issues of IT. • Policy, Legal and Global Issues of IT. • Enterprise Database Technology.
