UML PROFILE FOR SAVECCM - Research

SaveUML profile
Base classifier: Usage
Tagged values: This stereotype does not have tagged values defined.
Constraints:
[1] ComplexConnectionDirection: SaveFromComplex is used to connect a complex
connection to a component. This constraint checks if the client of a connection
(starting point) is a component with SaveComplexConnection stereotype applied,
and a supplier of a connection (ending point) must be an input port (a port with
SaveTriggerInPort, SaveDataInPort or SaveCombinedInPort stereotype applied).
[2] NumberOfStereotypes: see the SaveAssembly constraint [6].
6.3.3.16 SaveModel
A model in the SaveCCM domain represents a software realization of a
components behaviour, most likely in the form of a programming language
function. UML Artifact represents a physical piece of information that is used,
among other things, by the operation of a system. A UML artifact can therefore be
a model or a software. This means that the UML artifact is a good base classifier
for the SaveCCM model.
A model is connected to a component through a UML manifestation relationship
which indicates their semantically link. UML Manifestation is usually used for
division between an abstraction and a manifestation, for example distinction
between a class and an object, where the class is an abstraction and the object is
a clear manifestation of that class. Most UML building blocks have this kind of
class/object distinction, e.g. use case, use case instance etc. Therefore,
manifestation relationship is suitable for this purpose. A component can have any
number of models attached to it.
Base classifier: Artifact
Tagged values:
• Type : String. Describes what type of model it is.
• Filename : String. A file containing model implementation.
• Body : String. Instead of using an external file, a model can be embedded as
text within the element.
Constraints:
[1] ModelAttributes: UML allows for an Artifact metaclass having various attributes,
however SaveCCM model element can not contain any attribute (property). Except
attributes, this constraint checks that there are not any connections used for
connecting this element to other elements, only a manifestation relationship is
allowed.
