The conception of a conceptual model is differently defined in Computer Science and Engineeringas well as in other sciences. There is  no common notion of this conception yet. The same is valid for the understanding of the notion of model. One notion is: A model is a well-formed, adequate, and dependable instrument thatrepresents origins and functions in some utilisation scenario. The conceptual model of an information system consists of a conceptual schema and of a collection of conceptual views that are associated (in most cases tightly by a mapping facility) to the conceptual schema. In a nutshell, a conceptual model is an enhancement of a model by concepts from a concept(ion) space. The variety of notions for conceptual model is rather broad. We analyse some of the notions, systematise these notions, and discuss essential ingredients of conceptual models. This discussion allows to derive a research program in our area.
概念模型的概念在计算机科学和工程以及其他科学中有不同的定义。对于这个概念还没有一个共同的概念。这同样适用于对模型概念的理解。一个概念是:模型是一种形式良好、充分且可靠的工具,它代表了某些使用场景中的起源和功能。信息系统的概念模型由一个概念模式和一组概念视图组成,这些概念视图与概念模式相关联(在大多数情况下通过映射工具紧密关联)。简而言之,概念模型是通过概念(离子)空间中的概念对模型进行增强。概念模型的概念种类相当广泛。我们分析了一些概念,将这些概念系统化,并讨论了概念模型的基本成分。通过讨论,我们可以得出本领域的研究计划。

Understanding Semantic Completeness in Rule Frameworks for Modeling Cardinality Constraints 理解基数约束建模规则框架中的语义完备性
Pub Date : 2018-02-27 DOI: 10.18417/emisa.si.hcm.23

Modeling organizational rules during conceptual design provides a more accurate picture of the underlying domain and helps enforce data integrity. In a database development context, there are many advantages to explicitly representing rules during conceptual design. Early modeling ensures they are visible to designers and users, thus improving requirements and validation. The rules can then be semiautomatically translated into logical design code. One limitation to widespread adoption of such modeling is variance in standards and semantics of rules. We consider cardinality constraints—a useful and integral part of conceptual database design. Many papers discussing classification frameworks for cardinality exist. Completeness of such schemes has always been in question since well-defined criteria do not exist to evaluate them. We suggest a “reverse engineering” approach, i. e., one of defining conceptual modeling constraint completeness based on mappings from the relational model. We develop a correspondence from relational algebra operator combinations to existing semantic constraint types. In doing so, we also come up with a new category of set-level cardinality constraints not previously examined in literature. We believe our work demonstrates a unique approach to establishing conceptual framework completeness and enables standardization of rule semantics which in turn allows for semantics-based (as opposed to procedural-based) representation. On the implementation side, it supports developing automated mechanisms for translating constraints to improve developer productivity.
在概念设计期间对组织规则进行建模,可以更准确地了解底层领域,并有助于加强数据完整性。在数据库开发上下文中,在概念设计期间显式表示规则有许多优点。早期建模确保它们对设计人员和用户可见,从而改进需求和验证。然后,这些规则可以半自动地转换为逻辑设计代码。广泛采用这种建模的一个限制是标准和规则语义的差异。我们考虑基数约束——概念数据库设计中有用且不可或缺的一部分。讨论基数分类框架的论文很多。这种方案的完整性一直存在问题,因为没有定义良好的标准来评估它们。我们建议采用“逆向工程”方法,即根据关系模型的映射定义概念建模约束完备性。我们开发了关系代数运算符组合与现有语义约束类型的对应关系。在此过程中,我们还提出了一种新的集合级基数约束类别,以前没有在文献中研究过。我们相信我们的工作展示了一种独特的方法来建立概念框架的完整性,并使规则语义标准化,从而允许基于语义(而不是基于过程的)表示。在实现方面,它支持开发用于转换约束以提高开发人员生产力的自动化机制。

This article provides a condensed overview of a layered and model-driven system architecture that empowers domain experts to set up and customize collaborative information systems without programming based on layered business-oriented conceptual models. This architecture emerged from a decade of iterative research, design, development, and technology transfer projects which focused on individual modelling and system construction activities. This paper puts these results and publications into a larger architectural perspective, explains the rationale behind this architecture, and argues to consider it as a reference architecture for model-based collaborative information systems in general.

Domain-driven design (DDD) and especially the usage of domain modelling methods (DMM) are modern approaches to improve software quality, and a way to develop software product lines (SPL). To emphasize advantages of DDD and DMM usage, a 3-level design scheme is proposed, which reflects also variability issues in the framework. According to this metaphor the main attention is paid to the phases of logical domain modelling and physical modelling, with usage of two alternative DMM-methods: JODA and ODM approaches. The algorithmic model for an efficiency coefficient estimation of alternative DMM usage is proposed, which utilizes structured data resources, expert methods and metrics used in SPL development processes. A feasibility study for the proposed approach is provided and the obtained experimental results are discussed, which allow to make positive conclusions about this research and to outline its further steps to be done.

Eliciting User Interface Requirements and Deriving Usability Problems from Scenario Textual Descriptions 从场景文本描述中引出用户界面需求和可用性问题
Pub Date : 2018-02-27 DOI: 10.18417/EMISA.SI.HCM.18
Josefina Guerrero García, J. González-Calleros
Scenario Textual Descriptions (STD) are general-purpose natural language descriptions of a narrative scenario of end users, real or potential, using an existing or a future interactive system. STDs may take many forms: use cases, structured scenarios, user stories, and natural language expressions of user actions. As such, these STDs contain useful information for initiating the development life cycle of a user interface of this interactive system. On the one hand, when the end user expresses some interaction through these STDs, user interface requirements can be elicited by deriving model fragments from them: user model, task model, domain model, process model, etc. On the other hand, when the end user refers to any previously used system to feed the requirements, usability problems can be derived from user interfaces critiques: usability problems by interaction object, by dialogue box or window, by entire application. Both approaches feed a bidirectional approach where requirements and usability problems co-exist in the same STD. This article presents how FlowiXML supports the entire approach based on a real-world case studyfor a distributed system for managing teaching students.
场景文本描述(STD)是对使用现有或未来交互系统的实际或潜在最终用户的叙述性场景的通用自然语言描述。性病可以采取多种形式:用例、结构化场景、用户故事和用户操作的自然语言表达。因此,这些std包含有用的信息,可用于启动该交互系统的用户界面的开发生命周期。一方面,当最终用户通过这些std表达某种交互时,可以通过从中派生模型片段(用户模型、任务模型、领域模型、过程模型等)来引出用户界面需求。另一方面,当最终用户引用任何以前使用过的系统来满足需求时,可用性问题可以从用户界面批评中派生出来:通过交互对象、通过对话框或窗口、通过整个应用程序产生的可用性问题。这两种方法都提供了一种双向的方法,需求和可用性问题在同一STD中共存。本文介绍了FlowiXML如何基于一个真实的分布式教学管理系统案例研究来支持整个方法。

Model-Driven Time-Series Analytics 模型驱动时间序列分析

Tackling the challenge of managing the full life-cycle of systems requires a well-defined mix of approaches. While in the early phases model-driven approaches are frequently used to design systems, in the later phases data-driven approaches are used to reason on different key performance indicators of systems under operation. This immediately poses the question how operational data can be mapped back to design models to evaluate existing designs and to reason about future re-designs. In this paper, we present a novel approach for harmonizing model-driven and data-driven approaches. In particular, we introduce an architecture for time-series data management to analyse runtime properties of systems which is derived from design models. Having this systematic generation of time-series data management opens the door to analyse data through design models. We show how such data analytics is specified for modelling languages using standard metamodelling techniques and technologies.
处理管理系统的整个生命周期的挑战需要一个定义良好的方法组合。在早期阶段,模型驱动的方法经常用于设计系统,而在后期阶段,数据驱动的方法用于对运行中的系统的不同关键性能指标进行推理。这立即提出了一个问题,即如何将操作数据映射回设计模型,以评估现有设计并对未来的重新设计进行推理。在本文中,我们提出了一种协调模型驱动和数据驱动方法的新方法。特别地,我们介绍了一种时间序列数据管理体系结构,用于分析从设计模型派生的系统的运行时属性。系统地生成时间序列数据管理为通过设计模型分析数据打开了大门。我们将展示如何使用标准的元建模技术和技术为建模语言指定这种数据分析。

A Petri net-based View on the Business Process Life-Cycle 基于Petri网的业务流程生命周期视图
Pub Date : 2018-02-27 DOI: 10.18417/EMISA.SI.HCM.4
A. Koschmider, A. Oberweis, W. Stucky
During the last 30 years Petri nets have shown a continuous popularity and durability as process modelling language. While some process modelling languages were crossed with others or even disappeared, Petri nets are continuously used as modelling language addressing various purposes in the context of business processes. In this paper, we refer to the success of Petri nets and describe business process modelling extensions as well as approaches for process modelling, simulation, execution and evaluation relying on Petri nets. The variety of Petri net-based extensions shows that Petri nets can be adapted to changing requirements for which these extensions, modifications or variants have been proposed.
在过去的30年里,Petri网作为过程建模语言显示出持续的流行和持久性。虽然一些流程建模语言与其他语言交叉,甚至消失了,但Petri网一直被用作在业务流程上下文中处理各种目的的建模语言。在本文中,我们参考了Petri网的成功,并描述了业务流程建模的扩展以及依赖于Petri网的流程建模、仿真、执行和评估方法。各种基于Petri网的扩展表明,Petri网可以适应这些扩展、修改或变体所提出的不断变化的需求。

A Process Warehouse Model Capturing Process Variants 捕获过程变量的过程仓库模型
Pub Date : 2018-02-27 DOI: 10.18417/EMISA.SI.HCM.8
Lisana Berberi, Johann Eder, Christian Koncilia
Process Warehouses are a well-established means for analysing the execution of business processes and the computation of key performance indicators. We propose a new model for process warehouses which is better suited to cope with business processes which have many variants. We present a meta-model of processes with a notion of generic activities which then is used to automatically generate a generalisation hierarchy for process variants along which OLAP operations can be performed.

A Universal Ontology-based Approach to Data Integration 一种通用的基于本体的数据集成方法
Pub Date : 2018-02-27 DOI: 10.18417/EMISA.SI.HCM.10
Antoni Olivé
One of the main problems in building data integration systems is that of semantic integration. It has been acknowledged that the problem would not exist if all systems were developed using the same global schema, but so far, such global schema has been considered unfeasible in practice. However, in our previous work, we have argued that given the current state-of-the-art, a global schema may be feasible now, and we have put forward a vision of a Universal Ontology (UO) that may be desirable, feasible, and viable. One of the reasons why the UO may be desirable is that it might solve the semantic integration problem. The objective of this paper is to show that indeed the UO could solve, or at least greatly alleviate, the semantic integration problem. We do so by presenting an approach to semantic integration based on the UO that requires much less effort than other approaches.
构建数据集成系统的主要问题之一是语义集成问题。人们已经认识到,如果所有系统都使用相同的全局模式开发,这个问题就不会存在,但到目前为止,这种全局模式在实践中被认为是不可行的。然而,在我们之前的工作中,我们认为,鉴于当前的最新技术,一个全局模式现在可能是可行的,我们已经提出了一个通用本体(UO)的愿景,它可能是理想的、可行的和可行的。UO可能是可取的原因之一是它可以解决语义集成问题。本文的目的是证明UO确实可以解决或至少大大缓解语义集成问题。为此,我们提出了一种基于UO的语义集成方法,这种方法比其他方法需要的工作量少得多。

Representing Imprecise Time Intervals in OWL 2 owl2中不精确时间间隔的表示
Pub Date : 2018-02-27 DOI: 10.18417/emisa.si.hcm.11

Representing and reasoning on imprecise temporal information is a common requirement in the field of Semantic Web. Many works exist to represent and reason on precise temporal information in OWL; however, to the best of our knowledge, none of these works is devoted to imprecise temporal time intervals. To address this problem, we propose two approaches: a crisp-based approach and a fuzzy-based approach. (1) The first approach uses only crisp standards and tools and is modelled in OWL 2. We extend the 4D-fluents model, with new crisp components, to represent imprecise time intervals and qualitative crisp interval relations. Then, we extend the Allen’s interval algebra to compare imprecise time intervals in a crisp way and inferences are done via a set of SWRL rules. (2) The second approach is based on fuzzy sets theory and fuzzy tools and is modelled in Fuzzy-OWL 2. The 4D-fluents approach is extended, with new fuzzy components, in order to represent imprecise time intervals and qualitative fuzzy interval relations. The Allen’s interval algebra is extended in order to compare imprecise time intervals in a fuzzy gradual personalized way. Inferences are done via a set of Mamdani IF-THEN rules.
对不精确的时间信息进行表示和推理是语义Web领域的共同要求。OWL中存在大量对精确时间信息进行表征和推理的工作;然而,据我们所知,这些作品都没有涉及不精确的时间间隔。为了解决这个问题,我们提出了两种方法:基于脆片的方法和基于模糊的方法。(1)第一种方法只使用清晰的标准和工具,并在owl2中建模。我们扩展了4D-fluents模型,使用新的脆成分来表示不精确的时间间隔和定性的脆间隔关系。然后,我们扩展了Allen的区间代数,以一种清晰的方式比较不精确的时间区间,并通过一组SWRL规则进行推理。(2)第二种方法基于模糊集理论和模糊工具,在fuzzy - owl 2中建模。扩展了4d流方法,引入了新的模糊分量,以表示不精确的时间间隔和定性模糊区间关系。为了以模糊渐进个性化的方式比较不精确的时间区间,对Allen区间代数进行了扩展。推理是通过一套马姆达尼IF-THEN规则完成的。
