SD2CPN: A Model Transformation Tool for Software Design Models
share
The growth of software system development using Model Driven Development (MDD) approach has increased the need for modelling, model-to-model (M2M) transformations and analyses at the design level for system verification. SD2CPN is a scenario-based model transformation prototype with analysis capabilities. This tool models scenarios using UML2 sequence diagrams (SDs) and transform those into coloured Petri nets (CPNs) that enables different analysis of the synthesised model. The model transformations are based on the M2M transformation rules that are formally defined in our previous work. This paper presents the features, design and the analysis methods of SD2CPN tool.
