UML PROFILE FOR SAVECCM - Research

SaveUML profile
• Entry : String. The name of an entry function that realizes the component’s
behaviour.
• Filename : String. The path to the file containing the entry function.
Constraints:
[1] ComponentAttributes: UML enables a Component to contain several types of
attributes: ports, attributes and operations. SaveComponent component may own
ports, quality attributes (properties with the SaveAttribute stereotype applied) and
bind port descriptions (properties with the SaveBindPort stereotype applied). Other
attributes are not allowed.
[2] ComponentConnections: see the SaveAssembly constraint [2].
[3] ComponentIntefraces: see the SaveClock constraint [4].
[4] ComponentPackagedElements: see the SaveClock constraint [5].
[5] ComponentPortNames: This constraint checks if all ports owned by a component
have a unique name. This is important in order to use bind port descriptions where
the name of the port has to be entered (see section 6.3.3.3).
[6] ComponentPorts: All ports owned by a component must have appropriate
stereotype applied. By appropriate stereotype it is considered to be one of the
stereotypes defined by SaveUML profile that are used to model SaveCCM ports. If
some of the ports would not have stereotype applied it would be ambiguous what
SaveCCM port it represents (as SaveCCM distinguishes several types of ports).
[7] NumberOfStereotypes: see the SaveAssembly constraint [6].
6.3.3.9 SaveComposite
SaveComposite stereotype represents a SaveCCM composite component. The
rationale for using the UML Component as the base classifier for the SaveCCM
composite component is very similar to the situation with the basic component.
The difference between the basic and the composite component is in the internal
structure, i.e. components realization. While simple components are mostly
realized by a single programming language function, composite components have
their internal structure built from other components, connections etc.
The subelements of SaveComposite can be other components and are added
using metaclass PackageableElement.
Base classifier: Component
Tagged values: This stereotype does not have tagged values defined.
Constraints:
[1] ComponentConnections: see the SaveAssembly constraint [2].
[2] ComponentInterfaces: see the SaveClock constraint [4].
