  1. A graphical specification environment for GCM component-based applications INRIA – I3S – CNRS – University of Nice-Sophia Antipolis EPC OASIS Oleksandra Kulankhina Internship supervisor: Eric Madelaine

  2. Background: modeling tools for component-based softwareGrid Component Model (GCM) Client interface Binding Server interface

  3. Background: modeling tools for component-based softwareGCM Architecture in VerCors Composite component GCM: Hierarchical model GCM: Separation of concerns: functional (business logic) and non-functional (control) aspects Membrane Primitive component Content

  4. Background: modeling tools for component-based softwareThe aspects of the project 1 2 3 The GCM implementation : • ADL generation • Component factory Formalization and semantics: mathematical formulas and proofs The Editor for the GCM Architecture specification: VerCors

  5. Motivation Formalization issues: • The existing formal model does not contain the Membrane • There is no properly defined set of constraints for the GCM Architecture. The well-formed component definition does not consider the membrane.

  6. Motivation Implementation issues: • The technology of VerCors (Topcased) is not maintained: cannot be ran on the latest Eclipse versions • The behavior (e.g. finite state machines) of Components cannot be specified in VerCors

  7. Agenda • Background • Motivation • Formal Model extension • Examples of constraints • The new VerCors prototype creation • Contributions and future work

  8. Formal model extension : ADL -> ADL-V2

  9. Agenda • Background • Motivation • Formal Model extension • Examples of constraints • The new VerCors prototype creation • Contributions and future work

  10. Examples of new constraints • Subtyping constraint • Separation of concerns Control level constraint

  11. Agenda • Background • Motivation • Formal Model extension • Examples of constraints • The new VerCors prototype creation • Contributions and future work

  12. Last Experiments with Eclipse Papyrus Result: • A simple editor was implemented and integrated in Eclipse Papyrus. It allows creation of primitive components, bindings and interfaces. Limitations: • The development is extremely time-consuming • The Papyrus project is unstable • It is unclear if it is possible to link our model with UML one: we did not succeed

  13. Obeo Designer Principles Code generation uses A set of Eclipse plugins for graphical editors creation Create graphical editors Based on Based on UML Diagrams Editors • Obeo: • Startup project from the NantesUniversity • Commercial project • The free version Sirius is going to be released in September 2013 • Strong community

  14. Obeo Designer Principles Exploit the Models Describe the Graphical Designer Define the Domain Model

  15. New VerCors prototype: implementation of existing features

  16. New VerCorsprototype: integration with UML Diagrams

  17. Agenda • Background • Motivation • Formal Model extension • Examples of constraints • The new VerCors prototype creation • Contributions and future work

  18. Contributions (intermediate !) The formal part: • The GCM formal model was extended. It includes the membrane now • The set of consistency constraints for the GCM Architecture was defined and formalized The implementation part: • The VerCors Prototype was created in Obeo Designer. Most of the features of the old version of VerCors were implemented • The UML Diagrams were integrated in the VerCors prototype

  19. Ongoing work Short term: • Implement the diagrams validation in the new VerCors prototype in Obeo Designer; express rules using Acceleo • Implement the ADL-V2 file generation • Check scalability: develop a significant use-case Longer term • Create the VerCors prototype in the free version of Obeo Designer
