Automated translation of UML models to executable code is a growing area of interest due to its benefits such as cost reduction and accuracy. However, major challenges in this area include checking consistency of UML models, and ensuring accuracy, maintainability, and efficiency of the generated code. This paper presents a tool called UJECTOR for automatic translation of UML models to executable Java code. The tool uses UML class diagram, sequence diagrams and activity diagrams for automated code generation. The tool generates structural code from the class diagram, and then adds behavioral aspects from sequence and activity diagrams. A case study is used for experimental validation of the code generation tool. The results show that the generated code is consistent with UML models, fully functional, and understandable.

This research work proposes an idea on the design framework of the IT support for the judiciary system in Thailand. We have performed an in-depth study of the court workflow at the Central Intellectual Property and International Trade Court (CIPITC). Case Management System and Web services concepts were applied. We also considered the practicality of system deployment at the civil courts in Thailand. The court authorities were requested to participate in the usability evaluation of the design framework and the software prototype. The evaluation was conducted in three domains: effectiveness, efficiency, and satisfaction. The analysis and discussion were then presented as a part of our results.

The majority of software development projects utilize the use cases technique to define software requirements, which are necessary to determine not only the scope of the software itself, but also the sequence in which this software will be constructed. Currently, there are several proposals to define the construction sequence of software requirements, but most of these proposals lack of ease of use from the developerpsilas perspective. This paper presents an approach to determine software construction sequences based on use cases precedence diagrams, which offers some advantages from the developerpsilas point of view. In order to demonstrate the technique, we also present a controlled experiment performed by people who had at least two years of experience in software projects. The results of this experiment show that our proposed technique, unlike other ad hoc techniques used, enables a more precise definition of the construction sequence.

In order to solve the problem of the assessment of the reliability of the fault tolerant system, the work in this paper is devoted to analyze a subsystem of ATC (air traffic control system), and use AADL (architecture analysis and design language) to build its model. After describing the various software and hardware error states and as well as error propagation from hardware to software, the work builds the AADL error model and convert it to GSPN (general stochastic Petri net). Using current Petri Net technology to assess the reliability of the fault tolerant system which is based on ATC as the background, this paper receives good result of the experiment.

Web services have become popular in order to access multimedia stream contents. However, these Web services are not supported with the same quality to Web clients who frequently access multimedia services. Also, ontologies provide meaning to concepts and their relationships for supporting semantic Web Service. This paper proposes ontological technique to apply user level Quality of Service (QoS) that provides two different levels to serve Web service with proper quality by contribution value. Main contribution of this paper is to support user level QoS and to use Ontology for it. Therefore, this work uses an ontology-based approach to organize QoS, enabling semantic classification of all Web services based on domains and QoS attributes.

Software piracy is the greatest threats to software industry, which will bring serious damages to the interests of software developers or providers. As a prevention technique, software watermarking is a new research area that aims at providing copyright protection for commercial software. This article proposes a hash function based dynamic software watermarking algorithm. By constructing appropriate hash function, watermark piece is embedded into it. Given the satisfied parameters, hash function will calculate out the corresponding watermark. To strengthen the logical relation with the program itself, some of the programpsilas constants are replaced by specific level hash function, tampering of watermark will lead to the applicationpsilas undefined behavior. Distinguishing from other watermarking techniques, this kind of watermark is not hidden inside the program code or its runtime state, but is calculated out dynamically. Analysis shows that this algorithm will be able to withstand a variety form of attacks.

Model-based testing refers to deriving a suite of test cases from a model that represents the behavior of a software system. As there may be large, sometimes infinite, number of operational scenarios that could be generated from a given model, an important issue of model-based testing is to determine a minimal set of test cases which provides sufficient test coverage. With formal concept analysis (FCA) mechanism, we could analyze the coverage of the test cases and eliminate those redundant ones. This systematic approach can help reduce the test suite whilst still maintain the sufficiency of test coverage.

Component based software engineering (CBSE) is a new archetype to construct the systems by using reusable components ldquoas it isrdquo. To achieve high dependability in such systems, there must be appropriate fault tolerance mechanism in them at the architectural level. This paper presents a fault tolerant component based architecture that relies on the C2 architectural style and is based on design diverse and exception handling fault tolerance strategies. The proposed fault tolerant component architecture employs special-purpose connectors called design diverse-multiple version connectors (DD-MVC). These connectors allow design diverse n-versions of components to run in parallel. The proposed architecture has a fault tolerant connector (FTC), which detects and tolerates different kinds of errors. The proposed architecture adjusts the tradeoff between dependability and efficiency at run time and exhibits the ability to tolerate the anticipated and unanticipated faults effectively. The applicability of proposed architecture is demonstrated with a case study.

Multimedia communication aims at transferring various forms of data, audio and video simultaneously in a single network. The applications such as videoconferencing, digital TV, multimedia teaching, distance learning and video on-demand make use of multimedia network and communication technologies to provide quality of service (QoS). With the wide variety of different real time system applications we need specific software for those specific real time systems that will meet the requirements of an application. In this paper, we propose the design and development procedures for real time systems using component based methodology. It starts with the requirement analysis of a real time system and continues to provide the functional model of the system and also the environmental design as well. As more and more functions or components needed to be added in designing a software system a modularized and systematic approach becomes not an option. Hence this paper proposes a systematic and procedural approach that will help to build a more reliable and suitable software architecture. This paper also includes a case study - a Multimedia real time conferencing system, whose aim is to provide a brief demonstration of how to apply the architecture and notations that are presented in this paper.
