“…For all development areas introduced in Figure 1, meaningful quality metrics and target values are required. For the different areas various quality metrics have already been proposed, such as the UML SPT/MARTE profile in case of software architectures [30] or the workflow quality metrics defined in [31] or [32]. However, a comprehensive definition of metrics covering all areas is still missing.…”

Information systems have been used to support business processes for a long time. Consequently, there has been an ongoing trend towards connecting and integrating the isolated IT solutions of enterprises into coherent systems in order to support the seamless execution of business processes electronically. Due to the often business critical nature of the processes such systems need to adhere to service level agreements that guarantee quality aspects such as a specific throughput or availability for a given process. However, a key weakness of existing development approaches for information systems is that they mostly focus on functional aspects of system development and lack an integrated view between different stakeholders and views in development, e.g. between business process management and software architecture. In this paper we introduce a novel approach for universal und uniform modeling of non-functional system properties that bridges the four areas of business and use case modeling as well as architecture and component design. By means of an example process, we first identify the key weaknesses of existing development methodologies and then derive the challenges for an improved approach. After that we describe the central aspects of our envisaged composition approach for non-functional requirements and how it might be supported by a novel breed of CASE tools in the future.

“…Petriu and Woodside use the UML Schedulability, Performance, and Time (SPT) profile to enrich UML diagrams with performance annotations [19]. In [28] they show the usage of the UML MARTE (Modeling and Analysis of RealTime and Embedded Systems) profile, which is the successor of the SPT profile.…”

Complex information flows in the domain of industrial software systems complicate the creation of performance models to validate the challenging performance requirements. Performance models using annotated UML diagrams or mathematical notations are difficult to discuss with stakeholders from the industrial automation domain, who often have a limited software engineering background. We introduce a novel model transformation from Use Case Maps (UCM) to the Palladio Component Model (PCM), which enables performance modeling based on an intuitive notation for complex information flows. The resulting models can be solved using existing simulators or analytical solvers. We validated the correctness of the transformation with three case study models, and performed a user study. The results showed a performance prediction deviation of less than 10 percent compared to a reference model in most cases.

“…Compared to simulation, the derivation of analytic models from synthesizable specifications has received much less attention. So far, work in this direction has been mainly done in the domain of (best-effort) networking systems where, for instance, layered queuing networks [15], Petri nets [16], or state-based formalisms [17] have been derived from synthesizable specifications, such as the ITU-T specification and definition language (SDL). In the domain of heterogeneous multi-processor systems, the UML-MAST tool can generate a model for holistic scheduling based on a system model described in the UML profile for schedulability, performance, and time (SPT) [18].…”

The performance analysis of heterogeneous multiprocessor systems is becoming increasingly difficult due to the steadily growing complexity of software and hardware components. To cope with these increasing requirements, analytic methods have been proposed. The automatic generation of analytic system models that faithfully represent real system implementations has received relatively little attention, however. In this paper, an approach is presented in which an analytic system model is automatically generated from the same specification that is also used for system synthesis. Analytic methods for performance analysis of a system can thus be seamlessly integrated into the multi-processor design flow which lays a sound foundation for designing systems with a predictable performance.
