Supporting feature model configuration based on multi-stakeholder preferences

Stein, Jacob January 2015 (has links)
Configuração modelo de features é conhecida por ser uma atividade complexa, demorada e propensa a erros. Esta atividade torna-se ainda mais complicada quando envolve múltiplas partes interessadas no processo de configuração. Trabalhos de pesquisa têm proposto abordagens para ajudar na configuração de modelo de features, mas elas dependem de processos sistemáticos que restringem as decisões de alguns dos stakeholders. Neste trabalho, propomos uma nova abordagem para melhorar o processo de configuração multi-stakeholder, considerando as preferências dos stakeholders expressas através de restrições duras e brandas. Com base em tais preferências, recomendamos diferentes configurações de produto utilizando diferentes estratégias da teoria da escolha social. Nossa abordagem é implementada em uma ferramenta chamada SACRES, que permite criar grupos de stakeholders, especificar preferências dos stakeholders sobre uma configuração e gerar as configurações ideais. Realizamos um estudo empírico para avaliar a eficácia de nossas estratégias no que diz respeito à satisfação individual e justiça entre todos os stakeholders. Os resultados obtidos provem evidência de que estratégias em particular possuem melhor performance em relação à satisfação de grupo, chamadas average e multiplicative considerando as pontuações atribuídas pelos participantes e complexidade computacional. Nossos resultados são relevantes não só no contexto de Linha de Produto de Software, mas também para a Teoria da Escolha Social, dada a instanciação de estratégias de escolha social em um problema prático. / Feature model con guration is known to be a hard, error-prone and timeconsuming activity. This activity gets even more complicated when it involves multiple stakeholders in the con guration process. Research work has proposed approaches to aid multi-stakeholder feature model con guration, but they rely on systematic processes that constraint decisions of some of the stakeholders. In this dissertation, we propose a novel approach to improve the multi-stakeholder con guration process, considering stakeholders' preferences expressed through both hard and soft constraints. Based on such preferences, we recommend di erent product con gurations using di erent strategies from the social choice theory. Our approach is implemented in a tool named SACRES, which allows creation of stakeholder groups, speci cation of stakeholder preferences over a con guration and generation of optimal con guration. We conducted an empirical study to evaluate the e ectiveness of our strategies with respect to individual stakeholder satisfaction and fairness among all stakeholders. The obtained results provide evidence that particular strategies perform best with respect to group satisfaction, namely average and multiplicative, considering the scores given by the participants and computational complexity. Our results are relevant not only in the context software product lines, but also in the context of social choice theory, given the instantiation of social choice strategies in a practical problem.

Diretrizes para desenvolvimento de linhas de produtos de software com base em Domain-Driven Design e métodos ágeis / Guidelines for developing software product lines based on Domain-Driven Design and agile methods.

Otávio Augusto Cardoso Macedo 20 February 2009 (has links)
Linhas de produtos de software (LPS) são coleções de sistemas que compartilham características comuns, desenvolvidas de forma sistemática a partir de um conjunto comum de ativos centrais. Dentre as técnicas propostas por vários autores para o desenvolvimento de LPS, dois padrões podem ser observados: o processo de desenvolvimento geralmente é sequencial e o foco do projeto (design) costuma estar em interesses técnicos, como alocação de componentes e separação em subsistemas, e não em um modelo de domínio. Embora essas práticas sejam reportadas como bem-sucedidas, um outro paradigma de desenvolvimento, baseado em métodos ágeis e em um conjunto de princípios de projeto conhecido como domain-driven design, é apresentado neste trabalho e pode produzir resultados mais satisfatórios, comparados aos métodos tradicionais. Essa hipótese é sustentada por comparações entre padrões de modelagem e por um estudo de caso feito neste trabalho / Software product lines (SPL) are collections of systems that have common features. Those systems are systematically developed from a common set of core assets. Two patterns outstand among the various techniques proposed by several authors for developing software product lines: the development process is generally sequential and the primary design concerns deal with technical issues, such as component allocation and system partitioning (into subsystems). The importance of a domain model is often neglected. Although such practices have been reported as successful, this work proposes another paradigm, which can yield more satisfactory results. This paradigm is based on agile methods and a set of design principles known as domain-driven design. This hypothesis is supported by comparing different modeling patterns and by developing a case study

Uma abordagem de desenvolvimento de linha de produtos orientada a modelos para a construção de famílias de sistemas embarcados críticos / A model-driven product line development approach to build safety-critical embedded families

Paulo Gabriel Gadelha Queiroz 20 January 2015 (has links)
Sistemas embarcados críticos (SEC) correspondem aos sistemas embarcados para aplicações críticas, que são aplicações nas quais falhas podem por vidas em perigo. A crescente imersão deste tipo de sistema em nossas atividades cotidianas aumentou sua demanda, e consequentemente, a necessidade por novas técnicas de desenvolvimento que possam aumentar a produtividade dos desenvolvedores. Linha de produtos (LP) é uma técnica de reúso, na qual famílias de produtos similares são desenvolvidos em conjunto, e portanto, objetiva-se o desenvolvimento em larga escala. Com a utilização de LP, pode-se reusar requisitos e arquitetura de forma sistemática. Entretanto, o reúso no domínio de sistemas embarcados críticos ainda é visto de forma cética. Por outro lado, o domínio de SEC tem obtido avanços de desenvolvimento por meio de técnicas orientadas a modelo. A Engenharia orientada a modelos (MDE) concentra-se na importância de modelos no ciclo de vida do sistema, tornando-os parte do produto final. Assim, mantêm-se os modelos simples, e a maioria da complexidade do software passa a pertencer às transformações, que podem ser obtidas automaticamente por motores de transformação. Isso ajuda a aumentar a qualidade do produto final, bem como facilitar a futura evolução do software, que poderá ser feita mudando-se os modelos de alto nível e obtendo-se, de forma automática, o novo produto. MDE é particularmente útil no domínio de SEC, pois a partir de modelos corretos do problema, a chance de introdução de erros durante a codificação é menor se geradores de aplicações forem utilizados em vez de codificação manual. Além disso, o aumento no nível de abstração proporcionado pelo MDE permite que técnicas de validação e verificação sejam usadas desde os estágios iniciais de desenvolvimento, tais como co-design e co-simulação. Portanto, este trabalho visa defender a tese de que é possível oferecer os benefícios do desenvolvimento em larga escala para o domínio de SEC e ainda continuar se beneficiando de técnicas de MDE. Para corroborar esta tese, define-se uma abordagem de desenvolvimento de linha de produtos de sistema com uso de técnicas de engenharia orientada a modelos para o desenvolvimento de famílias de sistemas embarcados críticos. Além disso, apresenta-se um estudo de caso de marca-passo elaborado segundo as indicações da abordagem proposta que indicam a viabilidade de sua utilização. / Safety-critical embedded systems (SCES) correspond to embedded systems for critical applications, i.e., applications where lives can be lost if they fail. The increasing immersion of this type of system in our daily activities increased their demand and, consequently, the need for new development techniques that can increase developers productivity. Product Line (LP) is a promising technique for reuse, in which families of similar products are developed together and, therefore, it aims at large-scale development. With the use of LP we can reuse requirements and architecture systematically. However, developers remain sceptical about reuse in the SCES domain, mainly due to problems in the past, such as the failure of the spacecraft Ariane 5. In addition, advances in development of techniques for the SEC domain have been obtained, for example through model-driven engineering (MDE) approaches. MDE focuses on the importance of models in the software life cycle, making them part of the final product. So, it keeps models simple, and most of the software complexity belongs to the transformations that can be obtained automatically by transformation engines. This helps increasing the quality of the final product, and facilitate the future development of software that can be done by changing the high level models and obtaining, automatically, the new product. MDE is particularly useful in the SCES domain because, from correct models of the problem, the chance of introducing errors during coding is smaller if generators are used in the development instead of manual coding. In addition, the increased level of abstraction provided by MDE allows the use of validation and verification techniques since the early stages of development, such as co-design and co-simulation. Therefore, this work aims to defend the thesis that it is possible to offer the benefits of large-scale development for the SCES domain and still continue to benefit from MDE techniques. In support of this thesis, we define a system product line approach using model-driven techniques for the development of safety-critical embedded families. In addition, we present a case study prepared according to the directions of approach.

However, testing these kinds of systems is challenging, as it may require running each test against a combinatorial number of products. We call this problem the High Dimensionality Problem. Another obstacle to product line testing is the absence of Feature Models (FMs), making it difficult to discover the real causes for test failures. We call this problem the Lack of Feature Model Problem. The High Dimensionality Problem is associated to the large space of possible configurations that an SPL can reach. If an SPL has n boolean features, for example, there are 2n possible feature combinations. Therefore, systematically testing this kind of system may require running each test against all those combinations, in the worst case. The Lack of Feature Model Problem is related to the absence of feature models. The FM enables accurate categorization of failing tests as failures of programs or the tests themselves, not as failures due to inconsistent combinations of features. For this reason, the lack of FM presents a huge challenge to discover the true causes for test failures. Aiming to solve these problems, we propose two lightweight techniques: SPLat and SPLif. SPLat is a new approach to dynamically prune irrelevant configurations: the configurations to run for a test can be determined during test execution by monitoring accesses to configuration variables. As a result, SPLat reduces the number of configurations. Consequently, SPLat is lightweight compared to prior works that used static analysis and heavyweight dynamic execution. SPLif is a technique for testing SPLs that does not require a priori availability of feature models. Our insight is to use a profile of passing and failing test runs to quickly identify test failures that are indicative of a problem (in test or code) as opposed to a manifestation of execution against an inconsistent combination of features. Experimental results show that SPLat effectively identifies relevant configurations with a low overhead. We also apply SPLat on two large configurable systems (Groupon and GCC), and it scaled without much engineering effort. Experimental results demonstrate that SPLif is useful and effective to quickly find tests that fail on consistent configurations, regardless of how complete the FMs are. Furthermore, we evaluated SPLif on one large extensively tested configurable system, GCC, where it helped to reveal 5 new bugs, 3 of which have been fixed after our bug reports. / Software Product Lines (SPLs) allow engineers to systematically build families of software products, defined by a unique combination of features—increments in functionality, improving both the efficiency of the software development process and the quality of the software developed.

Zeeshan, Ahmed January 2006 (has links)
This Master thesis proposes a solution to manage variabilities of software product line applications. The objective of the research is to support software decision makers in handling additional software complexity introduced by product line architectures. In order to fulfill this objective an approach to analyze, visualize, and measure product line specific characteristics of the C/C++ source code are proposed. The approach is validated in an empirical experiment using an open source software system. For that purpose the approach is first implemented into ®1 M-System-NT, an existing software measurement tool developed at Fraunhofer. The target hypothesis of the Institute for Experimental Software engineering research master thesis to perform static analysis of C/C++ source code, measure traditional and product line measures to identify the correlation between measures and indicate the fault proneness. / Official Address: Researcher Zeeshan Ahmed, Mechanical Engineering Informatics and TU Virtual Product Development Division (MIVP) Vienna, Austria Permanent Address: Zeeshan Ahmed, Humdered Street Mohala Garhi Shadula Sahib Gujrat, Pakistan

Leveraging model-based product lines for systems engineering / Exploitation des lignes de produits fondées sur les modèles pour l’ingénierie système

Filho, João Bosco Ferreira 03 December 2014 (has links)
Actuellement, de nombreuses entreprises ont besoin de construire des versions\variantes légèrement différentes d'un même système. Ces versions partagent des points communs et des différences, le tout pouvant être géré à l'aide d'une approche ligne de produits (SPL). L'objectif principal d'une SPL est d'exploiter la personnalisation de masse, dans laquelle les produits sont réalisés pour répondre aux besoins spécifiques de chaque client. Pour répondre à ce besoin de personnalisation, les systèmes doivent être étendus de manière efficace, ou modifiés, configurés pour être utilisé dans un contexte particulier. Une approche encourageante consiste à connecter l'approche MDE (l'ingénierie dirigée par les modèles) à l'approche SPL – les SPL basées sur les modèles (MSPL). L'espace de conception, l'environnement du système logiciel que l'on construit (i.e., l'ingénierie du domaine) d'une MSPL est extrêmement complexe à gérer pour un ingénieur. Tout d'abord, le nombre possible des produits d'une MSPL est exponentielle au nombre d'éléments ou de décisions exprimé dans le modèle de variabilité. Ensuite, les modèles de produits dérivés doivent être conformes à de nombreuses règles liées au domaine métier mais aussi aux langages de modélisation utilisés. Troisièmement, le modèle de réalisation qui relie un modèle de variabilité et un modèle de base peut être très expressif. En plus, il faut ajouter que les ingénieurs système utilisent différents langages de modélisation dédiés dans le cadre de projets pour la réalisation de systèmes critiques. Nos contributions sont basées sur le fait qu'une solution générique, pour tous les domaines, et qui dérive des modèles corrects n'est pas réaliste, surtout si on prend en considération le contexte des systèmes complexes décrits précédemment. Nous proposons une approche indépendante du domaine pour générer des contre-exemples de MSPLs, révélant des erreurs de conceptions de modèles et supportant les parties prenantes à construire de meilleures MSPLs et des mécanismes de dérivation plus efficaces. Plus précisément, la première et principale contribution de la thèse est un processus systématique et automatisé, basé sur CVL (common variability language), pour la recherche aléatoire de contre-exemples de MSPL dans un langage donné. La seconde contribution de la thèse est un étude sur les mécanismes pour étendre la sémantique des moteurs de dérivation, offrant une approche basée sur des modèles à fin de personnaliser leurs sémantique opérationnelle. Dans la troisième contribution de la thèse, nous présentons une étude empirique à large échelle sur le langage Java en utilisant notre approche générative. La quatrième et dernière contribution de la thèse est une méthodologie pour intégrer notre travail dans une organisation qui cherche à mettre en œuvre les lignes de produit logiciels basées sur des modèles pour l'ingénierie des systèmes. / Systems Engineering is a complex and expensive activity in several kinds of companies, it imposes stakeholders to deal with massive pieces of software and their integration with several hardware components. To ease the development of such systems, engineers adopt a divide and conquer approach : each concern of the system is engineered separately, with several domain specific languages (DSL) and stakeholders. The current practice for making DSLs is to rely on the Model-driven Engineering (MDE. On the other hand, systems engineering companies also need to construct slightly different versions/variants of a same system; these variants share commonalities and variabilities that can be managed using a Software Product Line (SPL) approach. A promising approach is to ally MDE with SPL – Model-based SPLs (MSPL) – in a way that the products of the SPL are expressed as models conforming to a metamodel and well-formedness rules. The Common Variability Language (CVL) has recently emerged as an effort to standardize and promote MSPLs. Engineering an MSPL is extremely complex to an engineer: the number of possible products is exponential; the derived product models have to conform to numerous well- formedness and business rules; and the realization model that connects a variability model and a set of design models can be very expressive specially in the case of CVL. Managing variability models and design models is a non-trivial activity. Connecting both parts and therefore managing all the models is a daunting and error-prone task. Added to these challenges, we have the multiple different modeling languages of systems engineering. Each time a new modeling language is used for developing an MSPL, the realization layer should be revised accordingly. The objective of this thesis is to assist the engineering of MSPLs in the systems engineering field, considering the need to support it as earlier as possible and without compromising the existing development process. To achieve this, we provide a systematic and automated process, based on CVL, to randomly search the space of MSPLs for a given language, generating counterexamples that can server as antipatterns. We then provide ways to specialize CVL’s realization layer (and derivation engine) based on the knowledge acquired from the counterexamples. We validate our approach with four modeling languages, being one acquired from industry; the approach generates counterexamples efficiently, and we could make initial progress to increase the safety of the MSPL mechanisms for those languages, by implementing antipattern detection rules. Besides, we also analyse big Java programs, assessing the adequacy of CVL to deal with complex languages; it is also a first step to assess qualitatively the counterexamples. Finally, we provide a methodology to define the processes and roles to leverage MSPL engineering in an organization.

Gerenciamento de configuração de uma linha de produtos de software de veículos aéreos não tripulados / Confuguration management of a unmanned aerial vehicles software product line

Eduardo Miranda Steiner 22 March 2012 (has links)
Veículos Aéreos não Tripulados (VANTs) são aeronaves que voam sem tripulação e são capazes de realizar diversos tipos de missões, como vigilância, coleta de dados topográficos e monitoramento ambiental. Este é um domínio que tem muito a ganhar com a aplicação da abordagem de Linha de Produtos de Software (LPS), uma vez que é rico em variabilidades e cada modelo de VANT tem também muitas partes comuns. Neste trabalho é apresentada uma infraestrutura tecnológica e de configuração de ativos em Simulink, gerenciados pelas ferramentas Pure::variant e Hephaestos para uma LPS de VANTs. Um conjunto de padrões para especificação de variabilidades em Simulink é proposto, bem como uma extensão para a ferramenta Hephaestus. Uma comparação entre as ferramentas Pure::variants e Hephaestus é apresentada / Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are aircrafts that can fly without any crew and are capable to realize several types of missions such as surveillance, topographic data collection and environmental monitoring. This is a domain which can benefit very much with the adoption of the Software Product Lines (SPL) approach, as each UAV model is rich in variabilities and has many common parts. In this work it is presented a software asset configuration infrastructure for the Simulink environment, managed by the tools Pure::variants and Hephaestus for a UAV SPL. A set of patterns of variability specification in Simulink is proposed as well as an extension to Hephaestus to support a SPL product engineering for Simulink. A comparison between Pure::variants and Hephaestus is also presented

Estudo e definição de uma linha de produtos de software para o desenvolvimento de aplicações educacionais móveis / Study and definition of a software product line for the development of mobile learning applications

Venilton Falvo Júnior 07 April 2015 (has links)
A popularização dos dispositivos móveis em todas as camadas sociais tem motivado o desenvolvimento de aplicações educacionais móveis, denominadas aplicações de m-learning. Neste cenário, as aplicações existentes, mesmo possuindo diversos benefícios e facilidades no que diz respeito ao ensino e aprendizagem, apresentam problemas e desafios relacionados, sobretudo no que se refere ao desenvolvimento, reuso e padronização arquitetural. Por outro lado, na vertente do reúso de software, percebe-se uma crescente adoção do conceito de Linha de Produtos de Software (LPS). Esse paradigma possibilita às organizações explorar as similaridades e variabilidades de seus produtos, aumentando a reutilização de artefatos e, como consequência, diminuindo custos e tempo de desenvolvimento. Neste trabalho é apresentada uma LPS voltada ao domínio das aplicações de m-learning, denominada M-SPLearning. A proposição da M-SPLearning envolveu desde o estudo inicial para a obtenção de uma análise de domínio efetiva, até a implementação dos componentes previamente analisados. A LPS concebida teve seus respectivos produtos avaliados experimentalmente no cenário industrial, fornecendo evidências de que sua utilização pode acelerar o time-to-market de produtos de m-learning, com um número reduzido de defeitos. / The popularity of mobile devices in all social classes has motivated the development of mobile educational applications, called m-learning applications. The existing applications, even having many benefits and facilities in relation to teaching and learning, also have problems and challenges, especially regarding the development, reuse and architectural standardization. Particularly, there is an increasing adoption of the concept of Software Product Line (SPL) in researches related to reuse. This paradigm enables organizations to explore the similarities and variabilities of their products, increasing the reuse of artifacts and, consequently, reducing costs and development time. This work presents an SPL focused on the domain of m-learning applications, named M-SPLearning. The development of M-SPLearning has comprised since the initial study for an effective domain analysis until the implementation of the components previously analyzed. Such SPL had its products experimentally evaluated in the industrial scenario, providing evidences that its use can accelerate the time-to-market of m-learning applications, with a reduced number of faults.

Modèles opérationnels de processus métier et d'exigences variables pour le développement de lignes de produits logiciels / Operational Models of Variable Business Processes and Variable Requirements for Software Product Lines Engineering

Taffo Tiam, Raoul 17 December 2015 (has links)
Toute institution concernée par le développement de logiciels, qu’il s’agisse d’un éditeur ou d’un organisme de services, doit faire face au challenge de compétitivité : “ faire de l’économie, un «objet de première classe» en génie logiciel ”. Cet impératif de penser l’économie du logiciel, s’est traduit par l’objectif d’obtenir une meilleure maîtrise sur la productivité du développeur. La Réutilisation Logicielle (Software Reuse) est un moyen privilégié d’augmenter cette productivité, en particulier quand elle est systématisée. Deux types d’activités doivent être considérés pour améliorer la réutilisation logicielle, le développement pour la réutilisation (development for reuse) et le développement par la réutilisation (development by reuse). Plusieurs solutions ont été proposées pour contribuer au développement pour la réutilisation. L’approche lignes de produits se distingue par sa contribution au développement par la réutilisation, à travers l’assistance et l’automatisation de la sélection, la configuration, et la dérivation de nouveaux produits. Néanmoins, malgré que cette approche a positionné la réutilisation comme activité centrale dans son processus de développement, celle-ci reste difficile à réaliser dans beaucoup de situations. Par exemple, en raison de l’absence de spécification ou gestion de la variabilité qui peut se manifester dans chacun des artefacts de toutes les étapes du cycle de développement. Dans ce cadre, la problématique générale de cette thèse CIFRE consiste en l’industrialisation d’une usine logicielle par la systématisation de la réutilisation dans chacune de ses étapes et la maximisation de l’automatisation des transitions entre étapes. Afin de mieux supporter l’agilité des environnements métier, notre premier objectif est la spécification de la variabilité au sein des modèles de processus métier, de sorte que les modèles conçus soient directement utilisables dans les usines logicielles. Notre second objectif consiste à introduire la spécification de la variabilité lors de l'ingénierie des exigences permettant ainsi de systématiser leur réutilisation, et l’établissement des liens de traçabilité avec les modèles de processus métier variables précédents. Ainsi, un modèle d’architecture logicielle (orientée services) peut être généré au sein de l'usine logicielle, comme implémentation des processus métier modélisés précédemment et dans le respect des exigences spécifiées. / Any organization involved in software engineering has to deal with reduction of production time and cost, in order to face the competitiveness challenge. This imperative of thinking the software economy resulted in the goal of getting better control on developer productivity. Software Reuse is a preferred way to increase the productivity, particularly when it is systematized. Two types of activities should be considered to improve software reuse, development for reuse and development by reuse. Several solutions have been proposed to contribute and improve development for reuse. For its part, product line approach is distinguished by its contribution to development by reuse through support and automation of selection, configuration, and derivation of new products. However, although this approach has positioned reuse as a core activity in its engineering process, it remains difficult to realize it in many situations. For example, due to lack of specification or management of variability which may occur in each artifacts from all steps of the engineering process. In this context, the general issue of this thesis consists in industrialization of software product line, by the contribution to systematization of reuse in each steps and automation of transitions between those steps. To better support the business agility, our first goal is the specification of variability within business process models, in order to make them directly usable into software factory. Our second goal is to introduce variability specification into requirements engineering, enabling systematic reuse of requirements models and establishing traceability links with previous models of variable business processes. Thus, an architecture model (service oriented) can be generated in software factory, as implementation of modeled business processes with compliance to specified requirements.
