Uma Nova Abordagem para Validação de Regras de Negócio Através de Transformação e Composição de Modelos MDA

Abstract. Two important challenges for MDA designers are to make business rules independent of the platform specific model and to ensure that the resulting implementation does not violate the properties within these business rules. In this paper we present an approach that allows developers to both describe and verify domain properties at run time. In our approach, an ontology specifies domain properties that are translated to aspect-oriented code. This code is automatically merged in the implementation. As a result, we are able to execute validation tests at runtime and to generate business rules that can be reused in other MDA specific models. We evaluated our approach and toolkit by successfully reengineering an industrial furnace management application.

Proposta de uma Arquitetura para o Gerenciamento de Regras de Negócio em LPS com Base na MDA

 Abstract. Are upheld in the SPL domain all business rules that define semantics links between entities for its completeness. By any change in business needs implies to keep of these rules up-to-date and is necessary to fix several application code to realize manually the necessary repair, making it a hard work for developers. The purpose of this works to create a new boarding to support software products in front of constant changes of business rules in this scenario, with thought at the reference architecture to manage them.

OWLtoAspectJ: Uma Ferramenta para Transformação de Regras Conceituais de Domínio em Aspectos

Abstract. The axioms are rules or affirmations of the truth on concepts and its creation is essential to carry through inferences on ontology. The axioms when generated for a programming language provoke one high coupling degree, making impracticable its reuse of the rules in other models. This work aims at to separate the axioms of the platform specific model. A tool was constructed to transform the axioms from OWL format to aspects. Thus, the business rules can be reused in other MDA specific models within the Java platform automatically.
