We address the problem of automating 1) the analysis of existing similar model variants and 2) migrating them into a software product line. Our approach, named MoVaPL, considers the identification of variability and commonality in model variants, as well as the extraction of a CVL-compliant Model-based Software Product Line (MSPL) from the features identified on these variants. MoVaPL builds on a...
Role-based access control is an important access control method for securing computer systems. A role-based access control policy can be implemented incorrectly due to various reasons, such as programming errors. Defects in the implementation may lead to unauthorized access and security breaches. To reveal access control defects, this paper presents a model-based approach to automated generation of...
Assessing the quality of a test suite is an important step of the testing process. Indeed, it is necessary to ensure that the different test cases target all the critical parts of the system. Model-based testing is a famous technique to perform testing. It uses a model of the system under test. Most of these models include logic formulas. Such formulas encompasses constraints to be satisfied within...
Needs for mass customization and economies of scale have pushed engineers to develop Software Product Lines (SPLs). SPLs are families of products sharing commonalities and exhibiting differences, built by reusing software assets abstractly represented by features. Feature models describe the constraints that link the features and allow the configuration of tailored software products. Common SPLs involve...
In Model Driven Engineering (MDE), models are first-class citizens, and model transformation is MDE's "heart and soul". Since model transformations are executed for a family of conforming models, their validity becomes a crucial issue. This paper proposes to explore the question of the formal verification of model transformation properties through a tri-dimensional approach: the transformation...
