Towards Design Method Based on Formalisms of Petri Nets, DEVS, and UML
Simulation-Based Design, Object-Oriented Petri Nets, DEVS, UML
Software system development uses specific development techniques and processes to
reach desired goals, whereas different kinds of systems usually need to use
different approaches. Obviously, there are used different techniques, tools, and
formalisms in each development process and the designed models should be
automatically or manually transformed to the next development step. The paper is
aimed at such development processes, which work with formalisms allowing to
design architecture and functionality, analysis of design, testing and system run
with no need to change this formalism. Nevertheless, there can be useful to
combine more different formalisms and model languages because of developers are
used to use these formalisms or there are already created models using these
formalisms. The paper deals with UML, Petri Nets, and DEVS application in the
systems design and sketches a method how to use the formalisms for modeling
a system architecture and its behavior. Its combination decreases a number of
transformations of models and makes the architectural description well-arranged.
