Research abstract
We shall design and prototype capabilities of a tool called Harmony for the modeling, construction and analysis of systems of systems. Harmony will be based on an integrated multi-view CASE technology targeted at supporting large-scale DoD systems. Recursive and partial composition techniques combined with strong typing will enable large-scale systems to be hierarchically composed. Adapters will translate protocols to couple different systems (or subsystems). Dynamic aspects of distributed embedded real-time systems (DREs) will be explicitly modeled. Information can be exchanged between Harmony and UML/MDA tools. Architectural rules can also be specified and enforced to ensure satisfaction of application-specific constraints. Harmony will be built on an open and extensible architecture, allowing new capabilities and views to be added as pluggable modules. It will also interface with component-based environments to facilitate reuse.
