Issues Descriptions

stereotype GRM::SchedulableResource should have an attribute describing its activation parameters

  • Key: MARTE_-66
  • Legacy Issue Number: 13655
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Fundacion Tecnalia Research and Innovation ( Mr. Huascar Espinoza Ph.D.)
  • Summary:

    The stereotype GRM::SchedulableResource should have an attribute describing its activation parameters (arrival pattern and parameters). This is useful in multi-rate systems, where, in addition to the activations defined at application level (activation events triggering action/event chains), OS tasks/threads can be defined with a given activation rate. For instance, almost all automotive systems are multi-rate systems. Even if the functional application appears as a single rate system, multiplexing mechanisms both in the communication or in data sampling mechanisms can induce to more complicated timing behaviors, which are a characteristics of multi-rate systems.

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b2 — Tue, 3 Mar 2009 05:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0
  • Disposition Summary:

    The activation pattern is a characteristic of the application, not of the platform. In
    fact it is usually different in each execution scenario. The concept of task, as
    used in languages and formalisms is for all of them a way to create an
    application, not a description of the platform. A modeling element that may serve
    for this purpose would be much closer in meaning to an RTUnit than to a
    SchedulableReource. So the extension requested is not in the scope of GRM. A
    task is clearly a design modeling element and if not in HLAM it may probably fit in
    SRM.

MARTE/section 7.2.1/ "No Metamodel root" bug

  • Key: MARTE_-65
  • Legacy Issue Number: 13086
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: INRIA ( Pierre Boulet)
  • Summary:

    The metamodel can not be executed/implemented since their is no root
    element in the metamodel. It would be useful to introduce the
    packageableElement, Model (A model owns * PackageableElements). This
    addition has several consequences on other parts of the metamodel in
    order for this latter to be used for instance to create MARTE model
    conforms to the MARTE metamodel.

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b2 — Fri, 26 Sep 2008 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0
  • Disposition Summary:

    Actually there is a root element it is “ModeElement”, and it has the “ownedElement”
    reflective relationship so all elements in MARTE may be (hopefully) derived from and
    contained in it. I suggest Close No Change.

MARTE Profile : Synchronisation between SRM, GRM, HRM and analysis part

  • Key: MARTE_-61
  • Legacy Issue Number: 11856
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: ESEO ( Jerome Delatour)
  • Summary:

    A simplification of GRM should be envisaged.
    GRM defines too many detailled concepts (for instance the Scheduler which seems more
    appropriate in the SRM package), these concepts could be defined in
    SRM or HRM package or even in SAM package.

    The way to define different types of services need to be aligned between GRM, SRM
    and HRM.

  • Disposition Summary:

    With respect to the status of the FTF, the resolution of this issue would need too
    much time to be resolved in an efficient and satisfying form. So, I (Sébastien
    Gérard from CEA LIST) propose to defer it.
    Disposition: Deferred This issue has been resolved by resolutions to issues 11411 and 11412. A brief
    modification is necessary in the introduction of GRM to comprise it as generic for
    also analysis and design. A brief text is to be added to the Introduction of GRM to emphasize its a role of
    foundation for the analysis packages (GQAM, SAM and PAM) and the DRM
    (SRM and HRM).

Section: 10/3

  • Key: MARTE_-60
  • Legacy Issue Number: 11621
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: THALES ( Sebastien Demathieu)
  • Summary:

    The GRM::Resource stereotype (and its specializations in GRM, SRM, HRM, such as HRM::HwProcessor) extends the following UML metaclasses: Classifier, Property, InstanceSpecification, Lifeline, ConnectableElement. When modeling resources within a composite structure, one has the choice to : 1) apply the stereotype on a UML::Classifier, and then type the parts by this classifier 2) directly apply the stereotype on parts (UML::Property) 3) both 1) and 2) In the case of 3), the relationships between the stereotype attributes defined on the classifer and those defined on the parts need to be clarified. A possible answer would be to formulate the following: "a stereotype applied to an instance (part, instance specification, lifeline, connectable element) allows one to assign values that are instance-specific and which overrive the default values of the stereotype applied to the class".

  • Legacy Issue Number: 13724
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Carleton University ( Murray Woodside)
  • Summary:

    The attribute contextParams in the domain model (Fig 15.2) is a collection of VSL::Expression::Variable (Variable as defined in Sec B.3.3.12). However in the profile definition of Sec 15.3.2.2 it is just defined as a set of strings.

    To make it consistent with the domain model, and useful for defining parameters of contexts, the strings should be defined to conform to the concrete syntax for variable calls or declarations of Sec B.3.3.12.

    Three of the examples of Sec 17.4 use these attributes, in a form that is no longer in the document, and need to be updated (see Figs 17.16, 17.17, 17.21, 17.27)

  • Summary:

    Concerning the FlowPort stereotype, there are some differences between the definition given in SysML and the definition given in MARTE. The differences are: - isConjugated : In MARTE, the multiplicity of this property is [1], whereas in SysML it is [0..1] - direction : In MARTE, the multiplicity of this property is [0..1], whereas in SysML it is [1]. Moreover, a difference also appear concerning the FlowSpecification stereotype: - In MARTE, FlowSpecification has a direction:DirectionKind[0..1] property, whereas in SysML, this property does not exist. Is it just an alignment issue, or is there any fundamental reason motivating these differences?

The notion of value is missing the NFP_Declaration domain model Description

  • Key: MARTE_-35
  • Legacy Issue Number: 13400
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: THALES ( Sebastien Demathieu)
  • Summary:

    The current NFP_Declaration package of the NFP domain model introduces the notion of NFP and NFPType. However, it is missing a relation between these concepts of non-functional property and the concepts of physical quantity and value (expressed in SysML by Value Property / Value Type). One can consider a non-functional property as a kind of physical quantity. These links need to be explicitly stated, which will foster a future alignment with SysML concepts. Proposed resolution: Introduce the meta-classes: ValuePropery and ValueType in NFP_Declaration package and create inheritance links from ValueProperty to NFP and ValueType to NFPType. No impact on the current UML profile.

The dependency between NFP and VSL is not necessary

  • Legacy Issue Number: 13341
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: THALES ( Sebastien Demathieu)
  • Summary:

    Currently the domain view and the UML representation of NFP rely on VSL constructs which specialize UML ones (ValueSpecification, Datatype). This dependency is a limitation to the modularity of MARTE (e.g. one might be willing to use NFP with another expression language). Proposed resolution: 1) In the domain model, replace references to MARTE::VSL::ValueSpecification by UML::ValueSpecification (starting by page 35). 2) In the domain model, replace references to MARTE::VSL::TupleType by UML::DataType (starting by page 38) 3) In the UML representation, remove the generalization link between TupleType and NFPType (starting by page 38) 4) In the chapter overview, remove the dependency link between NFP and VSL

  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0
  • Disposition Summary:

    The dependency of Domain Models on the VSL Domain Model does not affect
    the modularity of MARTE. On contrast, having a cohesive integration of Value
    Specification concepts from VSL with the other chapters is a must regarding the
    comprehensibility of MARTE. The only design constraint in MARTE was to do
    VSL independent of other MARTE specific chapter, because we had in mind to
    use VSL together with other profiles (e.g., SysML). This level of dependency has
    been achieved as VSL doesn’t import other MARTE packages.
    Note that there are many MARTE chapters that reuse VSL concepts:
    CoreElements, Time, RSM, and having also NFP importing VSL is not a real
    problem.
    For these reasons, we propose to close this issue without change.

using a simple Dependency to model an allocation relationship doesn't match with the allocation concept MARTE defines

  • Key: MARTE_-32
  • Legacy Issue Number: 13126
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Airbus Group ( Mr. Yves Bernard)
  • Summary:

    From my point of view using a simple Dependency to model an allocation relationship doesn't match with the allocation concept MARTE defines in its "Domain view", §11.2, p117. According to this domain view, it's clear that creating an allocation doesn't create any dependency between allocation ends, what is actually what we need in MDA like approaches where applications and plateforms are considered to be independant. However, the official definition of the UML "Dependency" metaclass states that : "A dependency is a relationship that signifies that a single or a set of model elements requires other model elements for their specification or implementation. " (formal/2007-11-02 , §7.3.12, p62, unchanged in v2.2 beta 1) Then, I suggest to change the UML representation of the allocation concept so that it really complies to the domain view, that is : if an element of one end of the allocation is modified only the allocation itself should be impacted and not the elements(s) on the other end. It's can be achieved, for instance, by the specialization of the Classifier metaclass, instead of the Dependency metaclass

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b2 — Wed, 26 Nov 2008 05:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0
  • Disposition Summary:

    Allocation is meant to be very general. Application elements are allocated to an
    execution platform (software or hardware), functionality is allocated to processes,
    processes are allocated to a virtual machine, and resources may be allocated to
    resource pools, just for some examples. What allocation is doing in these cases
    is imposing structure on a less structured system.
    For generality, alternative allocations should be possible. If only a single
    allocation is possible then the potential of MDE is thrown away. In particular,
    allocation does not always imply a dependency. Moreover, when a dependency
    is created, the client of this dependency is modified to refer to the dependency.
    This can be a problem when allocating read_only elements.
    The metaclasses Relationship or DirectedRelationship fit better. However,
    these metaclasses are abstract and there is currently no concrete specialization
    in UML that would not induced a specific semantics compatible with the broad
    acception of allocation intended in MARTE. Consequently, the issue should be solved in UML by introducing a new metaclass. It should be discussed with the
    SysML community given the relationship explicitly stated in the MARTE
    specification between the MARTE allocation and its SysML counterpart.
    However, to have an short term solution, we have decided to propose something
    that is not entirely satisfactory but would work with read_only elements, be
    usable in very general cases, require few tool adaptations and would have a
    minimal impact on SysML, with which we want to maintain compatibilities.
    This is done by adding the stereotype Assign that extends the metaclass
    Comment, while preserving the stereotype Allocate to maintain compatibility with
    the current SysML approach. The Assign stereotype is an alternative UML
    representation of the Allocation metaclass, defined in the domain model, but
    without the underlying semantics of the Abstraction metaclass. Note that the
    optional body property of the Comment meta-class can be used to provide the
    justification of the assignment

In GCM, domain model and profile do not match in ways that are not fully documented

  • Summary:

    In GCM, domain model and profile does not match in ways that are not fully documented. Although this may be acceptable when domain concepts map directly to UML concepts (no stereotype assigned), or when some syntactic sugar are added at UML profile level. However, it is not clear why the attributes: "direction: DirectionKind" and "kind: BFeatureKind" appear in some domain entities (FlowProperty) and in others not (FlowSpecification, ServiceSpecification, ServiceFeature, SignalSpecificatio, SignalFeature), while in the Profile they are used in all these entities.

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b2 — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 05:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0
  • Disposition Summary:

    This issue is related to alignment problems between the UML view and the domain view
    of the GCM (as well as issues 12867 and 13124, which are set to duplicate/merge
    because they are treated here).
    Issues 11820 and 13407 are related to problems with the UML view of the GCM, and
    they have been treated before this issue 13125. So, the revised text of this resolution is
    made to be consistent with resolutions 11820 and 13407.
    However, note that the revised text proposed here does not result in a “one to one”
    alignment. Indeed, let's remain that the domain view is intended to describe the
    specification of the specific modeling language, whereas the UML view (the UML
    profile itself) is a real design model of the domain model. They are not to be considered
    at the level of abstraction, and then their concepts do not have to map one-per-one. The
    intend of the GCM domain model, and in fact of all other domain models denoted in the
    AMRTE specification, are proposed to depict what is essential for the understanding of
    the GCM, and its underlying causality model (described in section 12.2.2 of the revised
    text).

    For simplicity on the one hand, and for the co-existence of both protocols in a combined
    EDF-FP platform on the other hand, it is convenient to use the Ceiling attribute to hold
    both, the priorityCeiling and the preemptionLevel of a mutualExclusionResource under
    the priorityCeiling and StackBased protection protocols respectively. Since both may be
    handled with an NFP_Integer type, the restriction already stated in the explanation of the
    ceiling attribute (section 10.3.2.9 page 104) is applicable also.
    This is the case for some other values using integer types in GRM, so a consistent
    modification of them is worth doing.

concrete syntax

  • Summary:

    Section 9 proposes some stereotypes to identify clocks and clock constraints. Annex C proposes a non-normative language (CCSL) to describe clock constraints. Even though CCSL is non normative (to give more freedom to tool vendors for implementation), such a constraint language must have some specific characteristics. For instance, it MUST allows description of both synchronous and asynchronous constraints. Hence, the normative part (Section 9) should provide a mechanism to identify the nature (synchronous, asynchronous, mixted) of the constraint even if the concrete syntax remains non-normative and described in Annex C. This would give some kind of consistency between different implementations.

What about a System Configuration concept having a set of OperationalModes?

  • Key: MARTE_-12
  • Legacy Issue Number: 12797
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Fundacion Tecnalia Research and Innovation ( Mr. Huascar Espinoza Ph.D.)
  • Summary:

    The operationalModes association end from rtUnit to rtBehavior has a multiplicity 0..1. This is not enough to model the OperationalMode as understood by fault-tolerance theory. An rtUnit should be capable to have many operationalModes. In addition, an OperationlMode would be need to be defined at system level too (not rtUnit level only). It seems that a separated stereotype (not rtBehavior as currently) would be necessary for OperationalMode. What about a System Configuration concept having a set of OperationalModes?

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b2 — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0
  • Disposition Summary:

    The concept of Mode (or Operational Mode) is central in embedded systems and
    in dependable embedded systems in particular. Having this concept only as an
    attribute of the RtUnit concept is indeed insufficient to model the behavioural and
    structural aspects of mode sensitive architectures. An operational mode can
    represent different things:

    • An operational system (or subsystem) state that is managed by reconfiguration
      mechanisms (e.g., fault-tolerance management middleware) according to fault
      conditions.
    • A state of system operation with a given level of QoS that can be handled by
      resource management infrastructures (e.g., middleware that assign resources at
      run time according to load demand, timing constraints, or resource usage).
    • A phase of a system operation e.g., starting, stopping, reconfiguring switchers,
      in a supervisory control system of an electric grid.
      We propose to adopt a number of minimum concepts to describe operational
      modes and their dynamics with UML state machines. Please notice that a UML
      state machine may be used “as is” to model operational modes and their
      dynamics. However, the need to unambiguously distinguish modal state
      machines, specifying the kind of above-mentioned macro-states, from other
      standard state machines, motivated us for explicitly describing these concepts in
      the MARTE specification. Furthermore, it seems necessary to characterize
      certain MARTE concepts with “modal” information. For instance, defining which entities are active in a given mode, specifying how entities behave in a mode
      transition, or determining what NFP values are valid in a given mode, all require
      means to refer to the entities proposed in this resolution.
      This resolution proposes to define this set of concepts related to operational
      modes in the “Core Elements” chapter. A number of updates are also proposed
      in other MARTE chapters to refer to the concepts added in “Core Elements”.

Currently, this aspect is not clear enough, and some parts use UML primitive types while others MARTE primitive types. In addition, establishing well-defined high level packages would help avoiding circular dependencies. For example, MARTE data types library use NFPs and VSL profiles, but MARTE defines NFPs profile in a high level package called Foundations, which has other internal packages that import the MARTE data types libraries. A better grouping criteria should remove interdependencies when implementing MARTE.

MARTE PAM Parameters for behaviour demanded by a Step

  • Key: MARTE-181
  • Legacy Issue Number: 11810
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Carleton University ( Murray Woodside)
  • Summary:

    A PaStep can make a demand for a behaviour, much like a macro, to be included in the Step. An example of the use of this, is to include a complex handshake protocol for exchanging a message between objects on different nodes.

    The profile has

    behaviourDemands: list of Scenarios to be included
    behaviourCount: corresponding list of number of invocations during the step

    It also should support parameters to the Scenario, such as the message size. This requires a way of binding a value in the invocation to a value in the Scenario.

    Possible resolution:

    Add behaviorParm : a corresponding list of tuples. Each element of a tuple could be expressed as (variable=value), with the variable name corresponding to the variable used in the Scenario

    More complex and powerful resolution: Let the context variables decdlared for a Scenario be implicitly regarded as an ordered list of arguments, when the Scenario is invoked. The tuple could then give just the values for the list. A NUL value could be used to mean, do not override the value given within the Scenario.

    The same considerations apply to PAM::externalOpDemands. A similar concern applies to GQAM::servDemands, but the resolution may have to be different as Operations already have arguments and the defining scenario is attached indirectly.

    A broader version of this issue is parameterizing behaviours in general: it seems to be incomplete in MARTE.

MARTE-AADL Issue 5

  • Key: MARTE-98
  • Legacy Issue Number: 11852
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: THALES ( Madeleine Faugere)
  • Summary:

    The representation of AADL properties with UML Notes, does not provide the AADL capabilities of the Properties language. Annotations in notes are not formal, as users use a free-text zone without any constraints for the annotated elements, and syntax checking. Furthermore, most of the AADL Properties defined in the Predeclared Property Set annex (AADL spec.) are already existing in MARTE stereotype attributes. The more appropriate way is to use these attributes to model AADL properties. However, additional problems rise from this approach: a) Not all the AADL properties exist in MARTE. b) Some enumeration types existing in MARTE do not contain the options supported by AADL. c) Stereotype attributes are not always annotated in the same model elements (according to the mapping MARTE-AADL at the conceptual level). This aspect can be solved in at least two ways: 1) We add the required stereotype attributes in the MARTE spec. 2) New stereotypes are created in this annex only to support AADL. While the first option could not be in the scope of MARTE (we cannot align MARTE to all other language in the domain!), the second one requires to follow a set of formal rules to create the new stereotypes (naming, extended UML metaclasses, etc.) A third option is to create stereotypes for all the AADL concepts, but inheriting from MARTE concepts. An optimal solution should be evaluated with regard to criteria such as: tool reusability, automation of model transformations, timelines, etc. The third option goes along with the question of having an explicit profile for AADL, with AADL stereo type (or at least AADL profile label for MARTE stereo types that are identical to AADL). Do we need to introduce a new stereo type just because we have to add some properties to a MARTE stereo type? AADL allows users to introduce new properties through property sets. In MARTE terminology, users can introduce new stereo types that carry properties specific to an analysis framework. Those we need to be able to associate with the base concepts of describing an embedded architecture (what we call core language). What would be a good approach and guidance for doing so? In that sense there are two issues: 1) describe what mechanisms are available to allow users to extend the base modelling language of AADL/MARTE – in essence meta modelling capabilities). In AADL we have an explicit textual representation in addition to extending the meta model of AADL, while in MARTE it is solely done through meta modelling. 2) capture specific sets of standardized (and not yet standardized sets of properties).

The following table presents the mapping between the AADL pre-declared property set and their equivalent in MARTE.

Section: Annex A: AADL-like models with MARTE

  • Key: MARTE-94
  • Legacy Issue Number: 11848
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: THALES ( Madeleine Faugere)
  • Summary:

    INTRODUCTION (to the following eigth issues) The section “AADL-like models with MARTE” in annex A: “Guidance example for use of MARTE” contains a mapping of UML concepts and stereotypes from MARTE and SysML to AADL metaclasses. The mapping is, in principle, a partial subset that was specified under the following considerations: 1. A UML native concept is used when it is considered expressive enough to represent an AADL concept (e.g., AADL Modes maps to UML State Machines). 2. Else, a MARTE concept is adopted (e.g., MARTE hwBus & hwDevice represents AADL Bus and Device). 3. If neither UML nor MARTE extensions have the corresponding AADL concept, SysML extensions are used (e.g., SysML Block represents AADL System). 4. Otherwise, new stereotypes are proposed in this annex (e.g., subprogram & port-group stereotypes to represents the corresponding AADL concepts). 5. Properties defined in the Predeclared Property Set of the AADL spec. are annotated in a UML Note stereotyped as “properties”. This section also provides some examples illustrating the use of UML (+MARTE+SysML) in order to specify AADL models. Some issues rise from this approach: [MARTE-AADL Issue 1] One general question is the scope of this annex. Either it will keep its “guidance” nature, providing a subset of mapping cases only, or it will provide a more formal mapping covering all AADL concepts and properties. Following a meeting with Peter Feiler (a core AADL author), the goal is to provide a full UML profile for AADL. If the approach turns towards the second option (full support), a more careful exploration of AADL concepts should be done. This means that this annex should guarantee that all the AADL metaclasses are mapped and that, at least, the predeclared AADL property set is supported. The SAE AADL committee supports a full UML profile of AADL. The committee would prefer to have it defined in the context of MARTE rather than a separate UML profile. A draft of a UML profile for AADL exclusively defined in terms of UML exists. This document can be harvested for the MARTE-based profile definition for AADL, e.g., for stereo type names and graphical symbol definitions

    In agreement with Peter Feiler from the SAE, MARTE will provide a full support to the AADL language, meaning that all AADL concepts and properties will be supported by MARTE. Annex A provides "guidelines" explaining and illustrating the use of MARTE for modeling and analysis of AADL applications.
    AADL-MARTE Concept alignment will be addressed by this issue; AADL pre-declared property set alignment will be addressed by issue #11582 and property language alignment with issue #11583.
    A proposed way of using MARTE with different abstraction levels is proposed in issue #11851, differencing design, software platform allocation, and hardware platform allocation phases and concepts. In addition to these refinement processes, analysis views providing specific and reusable analysis information are provided.
    The following table proposes a mapping between AADL and MARTE concepts, without introducing new MARTE concepts (stereotypes) in the annex.

MARTE-AADL Issue 4

  • Key: MARTE-97
  • Legacy Issue Number: 11851
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: THALES ( Madeleine Faugere)
  • Summary:

    MARTE is a profile with multiple abstraction levels. For instance, the concept of “Schedulable Resource” appears in the GRM as a high-level abstraction concept (SchedulableResource stereotype), in SRM as an RTOS API specific concept (swSchedulableResource stereotype). Also, some concepts used in GRM are refined with new attributes in the analysis chapters. The choice of MARTE stereotypes to model AADL concepts should be formalized with a set of rules, specifyingwhen to use GRM, SRM, GQAM, SAM stereotypes. This is not an easy task! This also depends on the required AADL Properties to attach in models. Managing the set of properties is indeed not easy. In AADL we have the property set mechanism through which we can introduce new properties that can be associated with existing AADL concepts. As such they enhance the semantics of those concepts and may introduce new concepts. For example, at the SEI we have defined a set of security related properties and associated them with components (system, process, thread, Â…), ports, and connections. In doing so we represent security related concepts of subjects, object, roles. To us these properties act as annotations to the base architecture model, and their mapping into a analysis-specific model (meta model for security models) understands the mapping of core AADL concepts into analysis-domain concepts. In some cases the existing core architecture concepts are not sufficient; then new concepts can be introduced through the annex mechanism. For example, the error model annex allows users to introduce additional concepts such as “error events” (faults), which exist as separate entities and are associated with core AADL entities. They themselves can have properties as defined through property sets. MARTE, by doing the same in the context of a meta model, e.g., through GQAM, SAM etc., have an explicit way of identifying these analysis specific concepts by name. At the same time when I have an architecture model and want to associate specific analysis interests, I would have to identify the collection of stereo types, some representing the base architecture model, and some the analysis specific abstractions and annotations to bee attached. When I look at the predeclared properties in the AADL standard, they deal with more than one analysis area. We are attempting to subcategorize them. If you have good insight on how to do some of this better, we are looking for input on doing this better on the AADL side as well.

  • Summary:

    [MARTE-AADL Issue 3] The set of new stereotypes provided in the AADL annex of MARTE (e.g., port group, subprogram, data type) seems to show that MARTE (and UML) does not support some AADL concepts. However: a) AADL Subprogram clearly maps to an UML Operation. More refined Operations can be modelled by “Requested Service” (GQAM chapter, p.263). b) AADL Data concept clearly maps to MARTE MutualExclusionResource (GRM chapter) or SharedResource (SAM chapter). The latter includes additional stereotype attributes useful for schedulability analysis. It may be a combination of both. This brings up the question of what the overlap and difference is between MutualExclusionResource and SharedResource. One represents the mechanism to achieve mutual exclusion, while the second is the entity that may require mutual exclusion in the context of concurrent access.

  • Key: MARTE-95
  • Legacy Issue Number: 11849
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: THALES ( Madeleine Faugere)
  • Summary:

    The use of UML native concepts for some of the AADL constructs should be revised from a pragmatic viewpoint. For instance: a) The use of pure state machines to model AADL operational modes is sometimes insufficient. In the examples provided in MARTE (p.376; ptc/07-08-04), the relationship between a system configuration (modelled by a Collaboration) and a State specifying a Mode, is reflected by the “Name”. I.e., there is no an explicit association between both. It seems that providing a “Mode” stereotype in MARTE, with an appropriate relationship with other modelling elements could be very useful. This would facilitate model extraction/transformation when different kinds of state machines exist in a UML model. The relation between The AADL concepts of “mode transition” and “mode transition trigger” and UML state machines elements should be clarified. b) AADL Flows and EndToEndFlows are modelled by UML Activity diagrams. However, there is already the EndToEndFlow concept in MARTE (SAM chapter), which encloses the same semantics, and furthermore, provides a set of attributes (stereotype properties) that match with the AADL ones (e.g., end-to-end deadline, end to end time). The use of MARTE EndToEndFlows should be evaluated

The necessary extensions should be applied to the existing observer by users, as they need them, rather than trying to define something that will satisfy all needs.

  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    a) An example on how to model the AADL dispatch protocol with MARTE
    is missing.
    Two ways of representing dispatch protocol are possible, depending on
    the abstraction layer and end-user choice.
    A first representation allows mixing application elements and
    resources by attaching a Dispatch protocol attribute and applying the
    stereotype "SwSchedulableResource". For instance, a new property (named
    "dispatch_type") and stereotyped "rtf" can be created in the user model
    view. This dispatch property covers the different AADL dispatch
    protocols: periodic, sporadic, aperiodic, timed, hybrid, background.
    A second representation is to define a model library for AADL threads.
    One class can be defined for each dispatch protocol and the classes are
    used to type parts of a structured classifier. Subprograms can then be
    represented as actions within an Activity and are allocated to the
    parts of the structured classifier, which represent the software
    execution platform.
    b) An example on how to model AADL flows with MARTE is missing
    Flow path in component declaration and implementation have been
    modified. A Flow specification declaration indicates that information
    logically flows from one of the incoming ports, parameters, or port
    groups of a component to one of its outgoing ports, parameters, or port
    group flows.
    Component implementations must provide a flow implementation for each
    flow specification. A flow implementation declaration identifies the flow through its subcomponents. Flow sinks and flow sources are
    implicit, and deduced from flow path implementations. Flow path on
    parameters will not be processed in this version.
    Flow specifications are represented by "UML InformationFlows", which
    represents an abstraction of the communication of an information item
    from its sources to its targets.
    End to end flows are represented by interactions or activities.
    c) An example on how to model AADL event-data port with queues and
    data ports without queues with MARTE is missing

  • Source: THALES ( Madeleine Faugere)
  • Summary:

    MARTE provides a language for expressions (VSL), including mathematical, logical, and time expressions. AADL also provides the ability to specify expressions. A detailed mapping should be provided in order to transform VSL expressions into AADL expressions. AADL is more limited in terms of expressions. We tried to not grow the property expressions into a full constraint language but offer the constraint language through the annex mechanism (construct). In this case we may define an AADL annex that covers the constraint expression capabilities of VSL in MARTE. Also in MARTE properties carry meta information about the property values as attributes. At this time in AADL we do not support a general attribute mechanism on properties (properties on properties – although it turns out the meta model of AADL has that in). Here we need to make some decisions on the AADL side. Input on what we should do better on the AADL side is welcome

    Modeling the AADL dequeue protocol AllItems seems impossible with UML (and therefore MARTE) because the selection of a behavior on an object node in UML takes only one token at once making it impossible to dequeue/read all the tokens from a queue. The OneItem, AllItems and in V2 also MultipleItems values try to abstractly specify three types of queue processing. It defines what happens to the queue content in terms of making it available to the application and having removed from system buffers. OneItem indicates that one element is removed from the system queue of the port. AllItems means all are removed. MultipleItems means that a detailed behaviour model describes (via the NextValue method how (many) are removed from the system queue.

Support for Views or sets of profile annotations

  • Legacy Issue Number: 11883
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Universidad de Cantabria ( Dr. Julio Medina)
  • Summary:

    Schedulability analysis models are built for each real-time situation of interest, and due to the number of different modes of operation of the system or to the number of different worst case equivalent models used to analyze those situations for which there would be no analitical techniques available, the amount of SA models to be annotated over the same UML base model is significant. The profile mechanism in UML provides a way to apply and de-apply a profile to a UML model, but it does not allow to have different colections or groups of stereotype instances (annotations) in a common frame so that they can be store and retrive in the repository, treated as views or "profile applications" of the same profile. In the case of SAM this will be done with the purpose of having different RT Situations, but the same will be valid for a large number of modelling purposes: the phase in the development process, level of detail, different analysis tool or technique to use, or just to assist the modelling processing paradigm. This may be solved in an ad-hoc manner by tools, but a standard (hence interchangable among tools) mechanism is desireble. The NFP types in MARTE may include an additional tag (property) to tie them together, but this tagging should be extensible to any stereotype

the GCM chapter should define a causality model for flows

  • Key: MARTE-86
  • Legacy Issue Number: 11839
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: THALES ( Sebastien Demathieu)
  • Summary:

    Subject: the GCM chapter should define a causality model for flows. Details: the GCM chapter introduces the notion of flow port as a structural feature of a structured class. However, the specification does not states what happens when a flow comes into / get out of a flow port. There should be a reference to behaviors owned by this structured class. Proposed resolution: enhance the GCM chapter.

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b1 — Thu, 20 Dec 2007 05:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    This issue concerns the semantics of FlowPorts and indeed its underlying causality model.
    Indeed, the issue 11840 is also clearly related to this issue. Issue 11840 summary is following:
    “Subject: Support for flows in activities. Details: The current specification provides a limited
    support for flow in activity diagrams. The GCM chapter introduces the FlowSendAction
    stereotype. However, there is no way to indicate the pins used to define the data to send. At the
    same time, there is no action (such as FlowReceiveAction) to indicate how to receive a flow. It
    seems that activity parameters are an interesing alternative to specify incoming and outgoing
    flows in activity diagrams (SysML follows this approach). Proposed resolution: Remove the
    FlowSendAction stereotype and provide a support for BOTH incoming and outgoing flows through
    activity parameters (maybe a stereotype would need to be defined here).” Both issues are treated
    in this document."
    As stated by Conrad Bock in [Conrad Bock: “UML 2 Activity and Action Models Part 4: Object
    Nodes”, Journal of Object Technology, vol.3, no.1, pp.27-41], there are traditionally two ways for
    considering dataflow communications:

    • a “pull” semantics with the following characteristics:
      o Passive: the arrival of data in the data store does not trigger behaviors per se. It
      is indeed additional actions, for example time-triggered actions, that when
      needed pull the data from the data store. o Non-depleting: the use of data in the store does not remove it from the store
    • a “push” form of data flow and storage, with the following characteristics:
      o Active: the arrival of data in the data store triggers execution of some behavior.
      o Depleting: the data arriving on the port is not store locally. Data is indeed
      conveyed to the triggered behavior.
      The objective of this resolution is to enable GCM's users to address both forms of data flow. For
      that purpose, we are making the following proposal:
    • Data sending:
      o The «SendFlowAction» stereotype is removed (NOTE: in this case, one resolves
      in the same time the issue 12286. This latter was then set to Duplicate/Merged
      and refer this resolution). Indeed, the standard UML SendObjectAction is already
      well suited to express a data emission. The execution of a SendObjectAction
      results in the emission of a message encapsulating the sent object (which can be
      an instance of any classifier). Note that, SendObjectAction inherits from
      InvocationAction and as defined in the composite structure package, this action
      already enables to specify a target port for the action (see, UML2 spec., section
      9.3.9 on p. 182).
      o In addition to specify the flowProperty on which a SendObjectAction is applied (or
      more generally to specify the feature of a non-atomic FlowPort or
      ClientServerPort on which an InvocationAction is applied), one introduces the
      «GCMInvocationAction» stereotype which extends InvocationAction (from
      InvocationActions). In this case, the stereotyped invocation action targets a nonatomic
      flow FlowPort or a featureBased ClientServerPort (i.e. a ClientServerPort
      which have been specified using a ClientServerSpecification. Cf resolution 11820
      for a precise definition of these concepts), and one of its features. For example, if
      a non-atomic output flowport has two flow properties (i.e. it is typed by a
      FlowSpecification with two out flow properties), the ‘onPort’ property of
      SendObjectAction enables to specify that this flow port is used as a target of the
      send. In addition, the ‘onFeature’ property of «GCMInvocationAction» enables to
      specify which of the two flow properties the target of the send is.
    • Data reception events: Once we have dealt with data sending, it is also required to be able to deal with
      data receipt. For that purpose, we introduce the «DataEvent» stereotype. This
      latter extends the UML's AnyReceiveEvent metaclass. This metaclass is the
      most generic kind of concrete MessageEvent. DataEvents are raised when data
      (which have been sent as a consequence of a SendObjectAction) are received
      on a behavioral FlowPort. In the case of a non-behavioral FlowPort, data are
      propagated along associated delegation connectors, and no event is raised at all
      (just as for standard UML Ports). DataEvents raised as a consequence of data
      receptions on behavioral ports are then stored in the event pool of the owning
      object just like any other kind of UML events would be. It implies that the UML
      semantic variation points related to event management also applies to
      «DataEvent» (and typically concerning the way events are ordered in and
      extracted from the event pool). This is however fully in line with the philosophy of
      the GCM which aims to be as generic as possible. Particular semantic
      interpretation on the way DataEvent are dispatched and consumed would thus
      require a specialization of the GCM, such as the one proposed in the HLAM subprofile
      of MARTE. The definition of «DataEvent» mimics the definition of the UML
      SignalEvent metaclass, in the sense that it is possible to attach a classifier to the
      event in order to characterize it (just as it is possible to attach a Signal to a
      SignalEvent). More precisely, the classifier that can be attached to the event
      must be a classifier that can be used to type flow ports or flow properties (i.e.,
      DataType and Class). In order to avoid confusion with SignalEvent, a constraint
      imposes that the classifier associated with the DataEvent cannot be a Signal.
      DataEvents can then be exploited by triggers of transitions within a
      StateMachine, or by triggers of AcceptEventActions within an Activity. Hence, it is
      possible to specify reactions to reception of data of a particular type (i.e., data
      which are typed by a classifier compatible with the classifier associated with the
      DataEvent). Note that such triggers can natively be related to particular ports i.e.,
      the ports from which the DataEvent have been raised.
      o UML Triggers can natively be related to a particular port. Additionally, in MARTE,
      we introduce the possibility to specify more precisely the origin of a trigger. The
      «GCMTrigger» stereotype is defined for that purpose. It extends the UML Trigger
      metaclass and it owns a property that enables to specify which feature of the
      FlowSpecification of a FlowPort or ClientServerSpecification of a
      ClientServerPort (cf. resolution 11820 for details on ClientServerPort) is the
      origin of the trigger. It is thus possible to specify reactions that are, for example,
      related to the occurrence of a given DataEvent on a non-atomic FlowPort, and for a particular FlowProperty. Of course this advanced mechanism is mainly
      interesting for non-atomic port, because in other cases, there are no possible
      ambiguities.
      The concepts denoted below were defined to support the “push” semantic of MARTE's ports
      (including flow and client-server ports), and they are well aligned with the standard event model.
      The “active” characteristic of the «push» semantics is covered because the reception of a data on
      a behavioral FlowPort raises a DataEvent, which can be used as a trigger in a behavior. The
      “depleting” characteristics of the "push" semantics is covered because, according to the standard
      UML semantics, once an event has been consumed by a behavior, it is no longer available in the
      event pool to trigger other behaviors.
      Concerning the “pull” semantics of MARTE's FlowPorts, no particular extensions are required. A
      simple modeling pattern (suggested by SysML and Conrad Bock’s article, respectively for the
      usage of delegation connectors and the usage of properties for persistent data storage and nondepleting
      data use) is indeed sufficient as explained next.
      According to the UML 2 superstructure, a non-behavioral port should have delegation connectors,
      so that incoming requests can be propagated along these connectors to parts of the composite
      structure owning the port (in other case as said previously and as it is defined in the UML2
      specification, messages are lost). Then there are two possibilities for the parts connected to the
      ports: either they delegate also the requests to some of their parts, or they deal directly with the
      request triggering the execution of one of their behaviors. This case fits also with the MARTE's
      client-server port and it is thus reasonable to have a similar mechanism for MARTE's flow ports.
      At the end of the delegation chain, a non-behavioral input atomic flow port should have at least
      one delegation connector targeting a part which is type-compatible with the port (if there is no
      delegation connector, the data is simply lost). When a data is received on such a port and then
      delegated through the connector, no DataEvent is raised (which is in line with the “passive”
      aspect of the “pull” form of data flow). In this case, the semantics says that the data is written in
      the part targeted by the delegation connector, replacing any existing value. The data stored on
      the targeted properti can then be used when needed by the behavior of the component, typically
      via a ReadStructuralFeatureAction (which has no depleting effect on the value of the property).
      For more complex storage policies, we propose to introduce the « DataPool » stereotype. Two
      default storage and selection policies are defined: LIFO and FIFO. « DataPool » can also be
      associated with user-defined policies, via its ‘insertion’ and ‘selection’ properties. These
      properties explicitly reference UML Behaviors, respectively describing how a data is to be
      inserted in the property, and how a set of data is to be selected from the property. When a data is
      received on a FlowPort with a delegation connector targeting a property stereotyped with
      «DataPool», the semantics says that the data is inserted in the pool following the description provided by ‘insertion’ behavior (Concerning the usage of the ‘selection’ behavior, see the
      following description concerning the usage of connectors between properties and behavior
      parameters).
      This rule can be extended for non-atomic flow ports, where each flow property should be
      associated with a delegation connector (by convention, when one of the flow properties is not
      associated with a delegation connector, the FlowPort should be behavioral, and data received on
      this FlowPort and related to this FlowProperty will raise a DataEvent).
      Finally, issue 11840 proposes the possibility of an explicit “binding” between flow ports of a
      component and parameters of the component behaviors. This additional proposition is an
      alternative solution to the mechanisms described below. Moreover, let's notice that SysML is
      relying on this mechanism, but SysML is lacking two points: firstly, SysML does not define indeed
      clearly how that works (i.e., either by name matching between ports and parameters, or
      (probably) by using a BindingConnector), and secondly SysML does define also it’s the clear
      meaning of this mechanism. Hence, we provide next a clear semantics for this mechanism
      aligned (i.e., compatible) with the “pull” and “push” semantics we have considered until now:
    • “pull” semantics: A standard UML connector is expressed between a property (which
      used to be the target of a delegation connector, but does not need to be) of the
      component and an IN or INOUT parameter of a behavior or operation (which would
      typically belong to the owner of the port, but does not need to be). It means that the
      values passed to the parameters of the behavior (or operation) when the behavior is
      called are actually the values of the connected properties. The connectors just prevent
      from the usage of an explicit ReadStructuralFeatureAction to get the value associated
      with the properties. Note that this usage of connectors is compatible with the abstract
      syntax of UML, since both Property and Parameter are ConnectableElements. In the
      case where the connected property is stereotyped with « DataPool », its ‘selection’
      Behavior is used to compute the values to be selected (from the property) and to be
      passed to the parameter.
    • “push” semantics: Connectors are directly expressed between input non-behavioral flow
      ports (respectively the output flow ports) and input parameters (respectively the output
      flow ports) of the classifierBehavior Activity of the composite structure owning the ports.
      The idea is that each incoming data received on a flow port will be propagated to a
      parameter of the classifier behavior. The data associated with the input message will be
      handled as a token on an ActivityParameterNode corresponding to the parameter. The
      token will then enter the chain of computation described by the set of object flows and
      actions of the activity (with respect to the token propagation semantics of UML activities). At the end of the computation chain, tokens will be propagated to
      ActivityParameterNodes corresponding to output parameters of the Activity. If a
      delegation connector is modeled between such a parameter and an output flow port of
      the composite structure, a message containing the produced data will be emitted through
      the flow port (just as if SendObjectAction with this value would have been applied on the
      flow port). The standard semantics of UML activities implies that tokens related to
      required input parameters must be available for the called activity to start, and that token
      corresponding to output parameters will be made available on corresponding output pins
      once the activity is finished. Note that if one wants the activity modeling the classifierbehavior
      to be able to accept inputs (on its input parameters) and produce outputs (on its
      output parameters) while it is executing, input and output parameters of the activity
      should typically be specified as streaming parameters. Examples are provided in the
      revised text.

    <variable-declaration> ::= <variable-direction> '$' <variable-name> [<type-name>] ['=' <init-expression>]

    This means that you can have NFP values such as (extended notation):

    myLatency = (value= 5.0, expr= $var1=var2+var3/3, unit=ms) or the short notation:

ports in GCM

  • Key: MARTE-74
  • Legacy Issue Number: 11820
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Commissariat a l Energie Atomique-CEA ( Dr. Chokri Mraidha)
  • Summary:

    This issue is about ports in GCM. In UML if a port is typed with an interface, this interface is automatically considered as provided by the port (see port description section 9.3.11 in UML Superstructure). In GCM it is possible to type a MessagePort with an interface (BFeatureSpecification). Moreover if a MessagePort direction is specified to be "required", and if the port is typed with a BFeatureSpecification interface, this interface contents are considered to be provided by the port according to UML. This results in a confusing specification: a MessagePort specifying a required interface provides that interface at the same time.

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b1 — Wed, 19 Dec 2007 05:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    Using message ports may create redundancy and inconsistency with the UML composite
    structures, as mentioned in the summary of this issue. Indeed, BFeatureSpecification can own
    FlowBFeatures, where some of the features may have their ‘’kind’’ set to ‘’provided’’, and some
    others set to ‘’required’’. According to UML interface derivation rules, this may lead to ambiguous
    cases where a BFeatureSpecifcation (used to type a message port) is considered to be provided
    by the port, even if some of the behavioral features of the BFeatureSpecification actually
    represent ‘’required’’ features. A similar problem appears when a message port, with direction set
    to Required, is typed by an interface (i.e. the default rule in UML is that this interface is supposed
    to be provided by the port). [Note: More generally, the issue described here also concerns
    non-atomic flow ports, i.e. flow ports that are typed by a FlowSpecification. According to
    UML interface derivation rule, the FlowSpecification used to type the port would also be
    considered as a provided interface.].
    The proposed resolution for issue 11820 is designed according to the following guidelines:
    • it provides a mechanism for specifying provided and required interfaces of standard UML
    ports, in a way that is more intuitive and direct that the standard UML mechanism (which
    relies on derivation rules based on the port type, and which is particularly tedious for defining
    interfaces required by a port. Indeed, it technically implies to define a Classifier with a « use » relationship that targets the set of Interfaces to be required). It was indeed the original
    motivation for the ClientServerPort stereotype.
    • it should avoid conflicts with default UML rules concerning interface derivation, based on port
    type.
    The general idea behind the proposal is that ClientServerPorts can be used in different ways. The
    current solution explicitly identifies two usages (c.f. definition of /isAtomic = true or false) whereas
    in the resolution we identify three potential usages according to designer intent:
    • atomic usage: the designer wants to directly associate a signal with the port (i.e. the port is
    typed by the signal), specifying that the component owning the port is either able to send (i.e.
    ClientServerPort::kind = required) or receive (i.e. ClientServerPort::kind = provided) the signal
    via this port.
    • interface-based usage: the designer wants to directly provide and/or require standard UML
    interfaces on a port.
    • feature-based usage: the designer wants to associate a ClientServerSpecificaion (i.e. a
    consistent set of behavioral features, some of which may be provided or required) with the
    port.
    Additionally, issues 12802 (difference UML Port and MessagePorts) and 12801 (semantic
    difference between an atomic FlowPort typed by a signal and a MessagePort typed by a signal)
    have been stated as duplicate/merge with this issue. We provide a resolution for these issues in
    the revised text of the GCM chapter, described in this document. For issue 12802: Some text is
    added to explain that ClientServerPort (formerly MessagePort) is just a kind of syntactic sugar for
    UML Ports. Concerning issue 12801: we explain that FlowPorts and ClientServerPorts are almost
    semantically equivalent when signals are used to characterize their potential interactions (i.e.
    atomic FlowPort typed by a signal S, atomic ClientServerPort typed a signal S, or non-atomic
    ClientServerPort exposing a Reception for a signal S).
    Additionally, issue 12579 (that has been stated as duplicate/merge with this issue) concerns the
    renaming of elements (i.e. FlowBFeature) that are involved in the definition of MessagePort itself.
    We start this ‘’merged resolution’’ with the resolution of issue 12579.
    The primary reason of this name was to have a name constructed in a similar way than to the one
    of the FlowPorperty but dedicated to BehavioralFeature. I (Me, Sébastien Gérard, the original
    author of that concept) agree that this name is may be not the best oneÂ…
    Moreover as similar concepts exist in AUTOSAR, a very important standard for automotive
    domain and with which it is expected that MARTE will have strong relationships in near future, I
    propose to do following renamings:
    • FlowBFeature => ClientServerBFeature • BFeatureSpecification => ClientServerSpecification
    • MessagePort => ClientServerPort
    PS: I propose not only to rename FlowBFeature, but also the other concepts related to
    MessagePort, for global consistency of the specification.

What are semantics of real-time features on provided/required interfaces?

  • Key: MARTE-85

  • Disposition Summary:

    This resolution proposes general clarifications on the usage of the stereotype
    «RtFeature» (including its usage and underlying semantics in the context of
    provided/required interfaces).
    The stereotype «RtFeature» can be applied to multiple elements Additionnaly, issue 12954 also requires some clarifications. These clarifications
    require modifications to figures that are modified in this resolution. We therefore
    propose to resolve problems identified in issue 12954 in this document, and we
    state resolution to issue 12954 as duplicate/merge with this resolution 11838.
    More specifically, issue 12954 has identified the following problems: 1- In figure
    3.10 the stereotype <<RtFeature>> is displayed as <<Rtf>>. : In the proposed
    modification of figure 3.10, this inconsistency is removed. 2- In section 13.3.2.8
    the stereotype «RtFeature» is said to extend the UML Behavior element;
    however in section 3.10 this extension is not shown. : In the proposed resolution,
    «RtFeature» does not apply anymore to behavior. 3- Figure 3.11 does not show
    all the attributes of the «RtAction» stereotype. The new version of figure 3.11
    proposed in this resolution includes all the attributes. 4- The use of the
    stereotype «RtBehavior» is not clear. An example in 13.4 would be of great help.
    This stereotype has been deleted. Its attributes are indeed only characterizations
    of the event pool of an active object. Its attributes have been added to
    «RtFeature», and prefixed with ‘sr’ (for Schedulable Resource).
    (InvocationAction, BehavioralFeature, Message, Signal). In order to clarify to
    meaning of these multiple extensions, some text is added in the section
    describing the stereotype «RtFeature» to explain that: the most basic element on
    which «RtFeature» can be applied is InvocationAction, and that any other places
    where this stereotype is applied enables to specify a kind of default value in the
    case where the stereotype «RtFeature» has not been applied on a particular
    InvocationAction.
    Additionnaly, the title of this issue suggests that real-time features could be
    contextual to the usage of interfaces (for example, one may want to specify that a
    real-time feature concerns an operation of an interface that is provided on a
    given port). Therefore, we propose the following modifications:
    The stereotype «RtFeature» is modified so that it now also extends the Port
    metaclass. The stereotype «RtSpecification» is introduced, and it extends the
    Comment metaclass.
    All the attributes of «RtFeature» are removed from «RtFeature», and they are
    added to «RtSpecification».
    An «RtFeature» can now own multiple «RtSpecification», and it is possible to
    specify the behavioral feature that is concerned by this «RtSpecification». For
    example, a port can be stereotyped with «RtFeature». It can then own multiple
    «RtSpecification», where each of these «RtSpecification» may concern a
    behavioral feature of a provided or required interface of this port.

chapter 11 (GCM) should be moved in the Part II of the specification

  • Summary:

    Subject: chapter 11 (GCM) should be moved in the Part II of the specification. Details: The argument to push GCM in Part I of MARTE was that it was used BOTH for modeling and analysis. After having read the whole document, I do not see any dependency from the GQAM to GCM therefore I suggest pushing back GCM in Part II of MARTE (the design part) to make the MARTE foundations thiner. Proposed resolution: move chapter 11 in Part II and update the chapter number accordingly.

  • Source: THALES ( Sebastien Demathieu)
  • Summary:

    Subject: RTEConnector should be removed from RTEMoCC The chapter 13 defines a model of computation for active objects and passive objects. It precisely defines the metaclasses involved in this model of computation, building upon the MARTE foundation packages (e.g. GRM). Additionally, chapter 13 introduces the concept of RteConnector, which is basically a specialization of a UML connector with additional NFP. While the definition of active/passive object provide useful features for RTES design. The concept of real-time connector is more discutable. This concept overlaps with GRM::CommunicationMedia. It seems that all that relates to NFP characterics of a communications between entities should be defined in GRM::CommunicationMedia (latency, jitter, bandwith) As a beneficial side effect, removing RTEConnector whould remove the depdendency from RTEMoCC to GCM, which is not usued anywhere else. Proposed resolution: remove RTEConnector metaclass and stereotype and push the related attributes (bandwith, blockT, packetT, transMode) into GRM (e.g., in CommunicationMedia).

Details: According to another issue, the RTEConnector.bandwidth attribute could be pushed from RTEMoCC::RTEConnector to GRM.

    The bandwidth attribute should be removed from HwMedia and placed in CommunicationMedia in GRM with a more general explanation. This solution unfortunately may impact terminology in future GQAM variations, where different names are used for the same concepts. Now the conflict is not present since there is not direct inheritance. Considering that issue 11835 is in the same ballot all changes should be consistently indicated to vote for them in that issue. Hence this is now in the scope of Issue 11835.

  • Summary:

    Subject: Support for flows in activities. Details: The current specification provides a limited support for flow in activity diagrams. The GCM chapter introduces the FlowSendAction stereotype. However, there is no way to indicate the pins used to define the data to send. At the same time, there is no action (such as FlowReceiveAction) to indicate how to receive a flow. It seems that activity parameters are an interesing alternative to specify incoming and outgoing flows in activity diagrams (SysML follows this approach). Proposed resolution: Remove the FlowSendAction stereotype and provide a support for BOTH incoming and outgoing flows through activity parameters (maybe a stereotype would need to be defined here).

    There are two kinds of delay in a step
    ... self-initiated delays like sleeping or thinking or some latency included in the step,
    ... blocked delay waiting for an event initiated by some other thread of behaviour

    The latter is represented by the domain concept Step.blockingTime, which is the profile property gaStep.blockT.

    The former is not represented. It should be added.

    Proposed resolution:

    1. In GQAM, add the domain property Step.selfDelayTime:NFP_Duration and the profile property gaStep.selfDelayT:NFP_Duration.

    Add text to the domain model to explain selfDelayTime

    Add the definition of selfDelayT to the UML representation.

MARTE name prefixes

  • Key: MARTE-155
  • Legacy Issue Number: 12249
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Carleton University ( Murray Woodside)
  • Summary:

    There is no consistent convention followed in the beta document for naming of stereotypes and their attributes, and this has been pointed out in other issues. Some chapters use a prefix for the chapter, such as Pa or pa for performance analysis, Grm or grm for General Resource Model, etc. MOst do not.

    From the point of view of precision, fully qualified names are sufficient, but from the point of view of usability, the prefixes are very helpful, especially as MARTE is such a big profile and realtime is a cross-cutting concern. THat is (unlike sysml) the profile does not redefine UML or restrict it to the domain of realtime, but adds realtime info to a functional design. MARTE may be used with other profiles, possibly several at once.

    The usability issues are to identify the realtime stereotypes and attributes, and also to avoid cluttering the namespace. A stereotype attribute may become a property of an object and its name might conflict with a functional property. Users might avoid MARTE just to avoid the risk of this happening.

    Issue: Consistency in prefixes is desirable, either all stereotypes with prefix, or none. Usability is affected. Realtime concerns are pervasive and crosscutting in software, so flooding of the namespace could be a problem, including conflict with other profiles and with functional property names.

    Proposed resolution:
    Apply two or three prefixes to all stereotypes and attributes:

    mm for MARTE Modeling
    ma for MARTE Analysis
    possibly mc for MARTE Core.

    Where a stereotype is specialized from another one, a third letter could be used.

    Alternative proposal:
    Apply prefixes only to the analysis chapters, because these are more likely to be used outside the embedded system domain (e.g. for enterprise system QoS) and thus to be used with other stereotypes. For instance to specify requirements on delay.

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b1 — Thu, 28 Feb 2008 05:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    In order to decide when we need to prefix the name of element, we propose to
    apply the following algorithm as much as possible:

    • When we define a stereotype which name may conflict with the UML2
      metaclass the stereotype is extending. In this case, we prefix with the
      name of the sub-profile wherein the stereotype is defined.
    • When we define a stereotype generalizing an already defined stereotype
      of MARTE. In this case, we should use the name of the profile wherein the
      stereotype is defined to prefix this latter.
    • Finally, we should not use "_" between the prefix and the name of the
      prefix. This rule should apply also for the name of the concepts of the
      domain model. However, there is an exception to this rule: we will not
      rename the predefined NFP type (the one define in the MARTE library
      such as NFP-Real) because they are used all along the specification and
      the change will need too much work w.r.t. to the global interest to do it.
      Let's note that, we consider that that as an editorial issue and we will not provide
      the complete revised text for the resolution because it would be too big. The
      editor of the specification (Sebastien Gerard) will do the required modifications
      directly in the specification when integrating all other resolutions voted within this

    arrivals like irregular patterns for arbitrary distances between event occurrences,
    probability distributions, and other used in performance evaluation such as open

    [GRM, GQAM, SAM: DomainModel & Profile] A number of non-functional properties for scheduling analysis are specified by a worst-case and a best-case duration value. The MARTE library for NFP types defines a NFP_BoundedDuration data type. This type could be used to type ‘bounded’ durations in SAM.

    This two attributes may be not sufficient, it is better to have all the statistical qualifiers over multiple values of NFP_Duration supported. To minimize editorial impact and a deep revision of side effects, the additional attributes provided in NFP_BoundedDuration will be added to NFP_Duration. With the variation that "min" will be represented as "best" and "max" as "worst", this keeps the dual dimension in the utilization of multiple values and the specification of variability in the context in which the value is used. This implies minimal changes to NFP_Duration, eliminating NFP_BoundedDuration, and change the only reference to it (in RealTimeFeature) to NFP_Duration.

  • Summary:

    [NFP: value syntax] It may be useful to have a shorter (graphical) notation for NFP types including the value and unit slots only, e.g., ‘(55, kHz)’, or still ’55 kHz’, instead of the notation ‘(55, -, kHz, max, -, est, -)’ with all the qualifiers. This will enhance the graphical models readability. While this feature may be only a tool-specific mechanism, which could propose a graphical view (short notation) of the repository notation (full notation), it would be useful to standardize this notation in the MARTE spec.

  • Disposition Summary:

    We include this syntax (value-unit) only as a tool-specific feature to show NFP values in graphical models. This means that the syntax defined in VSL is still valid for NFP values (tuple notation). The reason is that the model repository needs to keep all the required NFP value information (value, unit, plus other qualifiers).

  • Summary:

    Proposition to extend the probability distributions functions list with (used in AnyLogic) : - geometric (double p) The Geometric distribution is a discrete distribution bounded at 0 and unbounded on the high side. It is a special case of the Negative Binomial distribution. In particular, it is the direct discrete analog for the continuous Exponential distribution. The Geometric distribution has no history dependence, its probability at any value being independent of a shift along the axis. - laplace (double phi, double beta) The Laplace distribution, sometimes called the double exponential distribution, is an unbounded continuous distribution that has a very sharp central peak, located at theta. The distribution scales with phi. - chi squared (double nu, double min) The Chi Squared is a continuous distribution bounded on the lower side. Note that the Chi Squared distribution is a subset of the Gamma distribution with beta=2 and alpha=nµ/2. Like the Gamma distribution, it has three distinct regions. For nµ=2, the Chi Squared distribution reduces to the Exponential distribution, starting at a finite value at minimum x and decreasing monotonically thereafter. For nµ<2, the Chi Squared distribution tends to infinity at minimum x and decreases monotonically for increasing x. For nµ>2, the Chi Squared distribution is 0 at minimum x, peaks at a value that depends on nµ, decreasing monotonically thereafter. - rayleigh (double sigma) The Rayleigh distribution is a continuous distribution bounded on the lower side. It is a special case of the Weibull distribution with alpha =2 and beta/sqrt(2) =sigma. Because of the fixed shape parameter, the Rayleigh distribution does not change shape although it can be scaled. - weibull (double alpha, double beta, double min) The Weibull distribution is a continuous distribution bounded on the lower side. Because it provides one of the limiting distributions for extreme values, it is also referred to as the Frechet distribution and the Weibull-Gnedenko distribution. - logistic (double beta, double alpha) The Logistic distribution is an unbounded continuous distribution which is symmetrical about its mean [and shift parameter], alpha. The shape of the Logistic distribution is very much like the Normal distribution, except that the Logistic distribution has broader tails. - pareto (doubla alpha, double min) The Pareto distribution is a continuous distribution bounded on the lower side. It has a finite value at the minimum x and decreases monotonically for increasing x. A Pareto random variable is the exponential of an Exponential random variable, and possesses many of the same characteristics. - triangular (double min, double max, double mode) The Triangular distribution is often used when no or little data is available; it is rarely an accurate representation of a data set. However, it is employed as the functional form of regions for fuzzy logic due to its ease of use. - cauchy (doubla lambda, double theta) The Cauchy distribution is an unbounded continuous distribution that has a sharp central peak but significantly broad tails. The tails are much heavier than the tails of the Normal distribution. - beta (double p, double q, double min, double max) The Beta distribution is a continuous distribution that has both upper and lower finite bounds. Because many real situations can be bounded in this way, the Beta distribution can be used empirically to estimate the actual distribution before much data is available. Even when data is available, the Beta distribution should fit most data in a reasonable fashion, although it may not be the best fit. The Uniform distribution is a special case of the Beta distribution with p, q = 1. - lognormal (double mu, double sigma, double min) The Lognormal distribution is a continuous distribution bounded on the lower side. It is always 0 at minimum x, rising to a peak that depends on both mu and sigma, then decreasing monotonically for increasing x. - erlang (double beta, int m, double min) The Erlang distribution is a continuous distribution bounded on the lower side. It is a special case of the Gamma distribution where the parameter, m, is restricted to a positive integer. As such, the Erlang distribution has no region where F tends to infinity at the minimum value of x [m<1], but does have a special case at m=1, where it reduces to the Exponential distribution. - negativeBinomial (double p, double n) The Negative Binomial distribution is a discrete distribution bounded on the low side at 0 and unbounded on the high side. The Negative Binomial distribution reduces to the Geometric Distribution for k = 1. The Negative Binomial distribution gives the total number of trials, x, to get k events (failures...), each with the constant probability, p, of occurring. - logarithmic (double beta) The Logarithmic distribution is a discrete distribution bounded by [1,...]. Theta is related to the sample size and the mean. - hypergeometric (int ss, int dn, int ps) The Hypergeometric distribution is a discrete distribution bounded by [0,s]. It describes the number of defects, x, in a sample of size s from a population of size N which has m total defects. The ratio of m/N = p is sometimes used rather than m to describe the probability of a defect. Note that defects may be interpreted as successes, in which case x is the number of failures until (s-x) successes. The sample is taken without replacement.

  • Summary:

    Wrong direction of the allocation: The MARTE allocation mechanism is directly inspired from SysML. SysML has chosen a convention contrary to UML and draws the arrow from the suppliers (usually a target) to the clients (usually a source). So as to be compatible MARTE has followed SysML with that convention. Now, the SysML RTF is considering that this triggers too many problems with tool vendors and thus considers using the same convention than UML. An alignment between SysML and MARTE is required as much as possible and MARTE FTF should then think through this issue and adopt the same convention than UML.

using $ in naming variables

  • Key: MARTE-141
  • Legacy Issue Number: 12209
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Carleton University ( Murray Woodside)
  • Summary:

    This editing issue affects many chapters.

    In VSL sec B.3.3.12 p 402 the declaration of variables requires that $ precede the variable name. Thus the $ sign is not part of the variable name.

    Throughout the document there is inconsistent naming of variables where they are used in context, with and without the $ at the beginning.
    Examples are found in NFP (Fig 8.9) and many other chapters.

    These are not incorrect... a variable name may still begin with any character. However they give a confusing impression, and consistency within the doc might be an improvement.

    In reading examples, I have found it a great help to readability if names denoting quantities (variable names) DO have the $ sign. So I suggest that we use the $ sign on variable names in our examples

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b1 — Mon, 4 Feb 2008 05:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    There are two kinds of VSL expressions related to variables: 'variable declaration' and 'variable call'. In VSL, we use '$' as a prefix only in the declaration notation, and in the 'call' expression, we use only the name. We really need to make difference between both because VSL parsers need to distinguish them.

    a) Arguments to use 'let' as keyword in variable declarations:

    The use of '$' is not 'conventional' to declare variables. Other keywords like 'let [variable-name]' would be more appropriate. It is recommended to use 'let ' for variable declaration because having a keyword for declaration is the more natural choice in most of languages.

    b) Arguments to use '$' as part of the variable name in variable call expressions:

    The absence of the symbol '$' in variable call expressions ("variable use") would make hard to make the distinction with other 'names' in VSL expressions, such as enumeration literals or PropertyCallExpression. The goal of this symbol in the former SPT profile was to identify easily a variable within an expression. With the current notation, the latter is not possible.
    .
    c) Arguments against a modification of variable notation

    Some reasons would suggest avoiding such a modification:

    • VSL has an essential difference with other conventional languages: VSL is intended to be used in 'properties values', where compact annotations should be privileged. Also, its use in Constraints tries to mark a difference with OCL, and it's that annotations should be shorter and easier to understand. Having simple and short expressions is a main concern in VSL to embed them in graphical models without charging models, and for easy learning of the language.
    • The UML Time Observation notation works exactly like VSL variables. A symbol ('@' for time observation and '&' for duration observation) is used for declarations, and only the name (without the symbol) for expressions. Time observations could be considered as a sort of variables, but with a more specific semantics. So, having the notation of both VSL variables and Time Expression aligned is important for comprehensibility of Profile users.

    -In MARTE, most of VSL variable expressions are used at "declaration" level, because in a regular NFP tuple, the value resulting from the evaluation of an expression or variable is specified in a dedicated slot ("value"). This means that the variables will be easily identified in a model, because they will include the '$' symbol.

    • VariableCallExpressions are mainly used in Algebraic (math, logical, conditional) expressions, where having a transparent syntax in terms of "parameters" either coming from a UML Property or VSL Variable origin is desirable to avoid complexity in VSL expressions.

    d) Conclusions

    The argument for using 'let' is more to follow conventional languages, and not pragmatic concerns. Also, the argument that the current mechanism confuses comprehensibility between variable declaration and variable call expression is not sustainable. VSL variable notation works exactly as UML TimeObservation works, and there were not reported any issue related to confusing language users.

    For these reasons, we suggest to close this issue with no change.

  • Legacy Issue Number: 12231
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: InterCAX ( Mr. Lonnie VanZandt)
  • Summary:

    When expressing requirements that implementations of the MARTE Profile MUST satisfy, the specification SHALL use Requirements Engineering statements which are de facto best current practices. For example, the phrase in the fourth paragraph, of 16.3.1, reads: BEGINQUOTE An "SaEnd2EndFlow" will make reference implicitly to one ore [sic] more GQAM "GaWorkloadEvent" and to one "GaScenario" commonly by means of a containment relationship (owned elements) or allocation stereotypes. ENDQUOTE This is expressing a Business (or Domain) Rule (as expressed in Figure 16.3) which implementations of the Profile must enforce. However, the sentence is too passive and is not sufficiently imperative to communicate this requirement. The recommendation is to replace such ambiguous and passive phrasing with the de facto standard SHOULD, MUST, SHALL phrasing now employed in RFCs and in Requirements Specifications. For example, replace the wording above with: BEGINQUOTE Every implementation of the MARTE Profile SHALL enforce that each 'SaEndToEndFlow' MUST refer to one or more GQAM_Workload::WorkloadEvent(s) and MUST refer to one and one only GQAM_Workload::BehaviorScenario. These references SHALL be achieved directly via Composition or indirectly via the <<allocation>> association. ENDQUOTE While this issue is written specifically for the cited text, the recommendation SHOULD be applied throughout the entire specification whereever the specification is expressing how the Profile MUST be implemented. There is no need for this formalism in the sections of the specification that provide rationale and explanation--that is, within the Domain Modeling sections. The rationales for this formalism are: it greatly reduces ambiguity, profiles are more than collections of individual decorations, domain rules "cut across" sets of domain elements, and a subset of tools extant can enforce such domain rules if those rules are known, expressed, and consistent.

  • Source: INRIA ( Frederic Mallet)
  • Summary:

    My concern is about the TimingResource of GRM. In the domain model (10.2.2, p.89-90 and figure 10.7), TimingResource both refers to a Clock (since it is a Resource) and specializes ChronometricClock. The specialization is not suitable since a TimingResource is not a clock (with the meaning given in the Time profile) but merely refers to a Clock. To make a TimingResource specific to chronometric clocks, it is largely sufficient to refine the association to a Clock by an association to a ChronometricClock. In the UML representation (Figure 10.15) and in 10.3.2.20 I would simply remove the specialization to ClockType. The reference to a Chronometric Clock (idealClock in this precise case) is already implicit by the use of the NFP_Duration type. If you really want to insist on the use of chronometric clock only, a comment in the text should do it.

    since Resource extends several metaclasses (Property, InstanceSpecification,
    Classifier, Lifeline, Connectableelement) and ClockType only extend Class.
    The specializations are not required since a TimingResource being a resource
    can already access to information of Clocks (including if required,
    ChronometricClocks).

  • Summary:

    In the GQAM Domain view GQAM::GQAM_Resources::CommunicationHost should inherit from GRM::ResourceTypes::CommunicationMedia, and GQAM::GQAM_Resources::ExecutionHost should inherit from GRM::ResourceTypes::ComputingResource. This said from a conceptual point of view, seems to indicate that also the corresponding elements in the profile should keep this inheritance relationship with the corresponding elements in GRM. The names of attributes should be consistent or at least related semantically to those in GRM. This may required some minor structural changes since in GQAM platform elements include semantics form various elements in GRM like for example the scheduler as well as the processing resource.

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b1 — Fri, 25 Apr 2008 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    Include in GQAM::GQAM_Resources::CommunicationHost the inheritance from GRM::ResourceTypes::CommunicationMedia. And in GQAM::GQAM_Resources::ExecutionHost inheritance from GRM::ResourceTypes::ComputingResource. Correspondingly update the profile, making GQAM::GaExecHost inherit from GRM::ComputingResource, and GQAM::GaCommHost inherit from GRM::CommunicationMedia.

    According to issue 11835 already resolved in ballot 2, some attributes in GQAM::GaCommHost are now inherited from GRM::CommunicationMedia, these attributes are:
    o bandwidth: NFP_DataTxRate [0..1] capacity of the communication element when applicable.
    o packetT: NFP_Duration [0..1] time to transmit the element used as a communication quantum, usually called a packet, the size in bits of this quantum is described by the attribute elementSize.
    o blockT: NFP_Duration [0..1] time the communicationMedia is blocked and cannot transmit due to the transmission of one communication quantum.
    o transmMode: MARTE_Library::MARTE_DataTypes::TransmModeKind [0..1] defines the transmission mode, one of the following values:

    {simplex, half-duplex, full-duplex}

    .
    The only difference is in the name of the attribute "bandwith" which is called "capacity" in GQAM. Since both of them represent the same concept one of the two should prevail; "capacity" is preferred as it is more general. As mentioned, this impact previous resolution of issue 11835, and as a duplicated also issue 11842.

    Attributes schedPolicy and isPreemptible in SaExecutionHost and SaExecHost are now redundant since they are inherited transitively from Scheduler.

In the UML profile description (p.281), the same GaTiming/TimedObserver has two properties startObs and endObs, typed by MARTE::Time::TimedInstantObservation. We need to choose whether a timed observer relates to a MARTE TimedInstantObservation or UML TimeObservation, and then to align the domain view, profile definition and profile description accordingly.

    However, in the profile view, it is permissible to use the UML corresponding metaclass,
    because there is no reason to constraint such TimedObservers to Observations
    stereotyped with the MARTE Time concepts. (The time concepts add the notion of

    First it is necessary to change from 0..1 to * the multiplicity in the association sharedResource that exists between SaStep and SAM_Resources::SharedResource in Figure 16.4, page 289 in the domain view of SAM. Then align the profile correspondingly by correcting the pictures in Figure 16.7 or Figure 16.9, and insert the description of the association as it is in Section F.11.3 page 609 in the description of the stereotype SaStep in page 298. In the GRM domain view it is necessary also to change to 0..* the multiplicity of MARTE::GRM::ResourceUsages::ResourceUsage.usedResources so that it may admit incomplete definitions of usages. For consistency it is convenient also to extend the multiplicity of requiredAmount to 0..*.

    A number of inconsistencies have been detected in the GQAM subprofile description. The GaScenario stereotype description changes from the domain description section to the UML stereotype description sections (15.2.2.1, 15.3.1 and 15.3.2.12).

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b1 — Thu, 19 Jun 2008 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    The differences are mostly in style of expression rather than substance,
    particularly in a property being expressed as an attribute in a diagram, because it
    is geometrically awkward to show an association. Attributes and associations are
    equivalent properties. There are two differences: (b3) timing is correctly represented in Fig 15.3 by an association
    (b4) timing is missing from the stereotype on p 283, and should be added.
    (a) GaWorkloadEvent has five properties:
    in Fig 15.3 in Fig 15.7 in stereotype p 286
    • pattern: attrib attrib attrib
    • generator: assoc attrib attrib
    • trace: assoc attrib attrib
    • timeEvent: assoc assoc attrib
    • effect assoc attrib assoc (proposed in resolution of
    issue 12538)
    The textual stereotype is consistent with the meaning of both diagrams, so no
    change is necessary.
    (b) The stereotype GaScenario in Figure 15.7 has attributes “cause” and “timing”
    which are not correctly represented in Fig 15.3 and in the stereotype on p 283.
    (b1) cause is represented in Fig 15.3 by the association inputStream. This should
    be changed to cause

Annex B: how VSL constructs shall be typed and evaluated

  • Key: MARTE-123
  • Legacy Issue Number: 11878
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: THALES ( Sebastien Demathieu)
  • Summary:

    Subject: Annex B doesn't clearly define how VSL constructs shall be typed and evaluated Details: Our problem: it seems to be missing some information in the current VSL specification that explains how language constructs shall be typed and evaluated. We had a look at other standard programming languages (ANSI C, Java) to see how such information is defined. In the ANSI C language reference, every section introducing a language element is organised with the same structure: a subsection that introduces the syntax, a subsection defining the constraints (including type constraints) and finally a subsection regarding the semantics (other type constraints plus explanations regarding the evaluation). For instance, we can have a look at an extract that introduces the function calls: > 6.5.2.2 Function calls > > Syntax > > primary-expression: > identifier > constant > string-literal > ( expression ) > > > Constraints > 1 The expression that denotes the called function shall have type pointer to function > returning void or returning an object type other than an array type. > > 2 If the expression that denotes the called function has a type that includes a prototype, the > number of arguments shall agree with the number of parameters. Each argument shall > have a type such that its value may be assigned to an object with the unqualified version > of the type of its corresponding parameter. > > Semantics > 3 A postfix expression followed by parentheses () containing a possibly empty, commaseparated > list of expressions is a function call. The postfix expression denotes the called > function. The list of expressions specifies the arguments to the function. > > 5 If the expression that denotes the called function has type pointer to function returning an > object type, the function call expression has the same type as that object type, and has the > value determined as specified in 6.8.6.4. Otherwise, the function call has type void. If > an attempt is made to modify the result of a function call or to access it after the next > sequence point, the behavior is undefined. In VSL, we have a definition of the abstract syntax (the meta-model) and the concrete syntax (the BNF) in the Annex B and we have a detailed description of the domain classes (abstract syntax elements) in the Annex F. It seems that the current "constraint" and "semantics" sections of the metaclass descriptions miss some detailed information on the way constructs shall be typed and evaluated. The information does not seem to be systematic and homogeneous. Examples: > F.13.6 ConditionalExpression (from Expressions) > Generalizations > • Expression (from Expressions) on page 560 > Associations > • conditionExpr: VSL::ValueSpecification [1] Boolean expression to be evaluated. > • ifTrueExpr: VSL::ValueSpecification [1] result expression if conditionExpr is evaluated to True. > • ifFalseExpr: VSL::ValueSpecification [1] result expression if conditionExpr is evaluated to false. > Semantics > Conditional Expressions define "if-then-else" statements, which can be used inside an expression. The result of evaluating > this expression will be the result of => Here it is not stated that the consequence (ifTrueExpr) and the alternative (ifFalseExpr) shall have the same type or that the type of such an expression if a boolean. OR > F.13.8 DurationExpression (from TimeExpressions) > Generalizations > • TimeExpression (from TimeExpressions) on page 567 > Semantics > DurationExpression is a time expression that denotes a duration value. => Again, here it may miss more detailed information on the type of the expression. This is the kind of information we missed when implementing the VSL editor and which we need to figure out by ourselves. Sometimes it's obvious but it happens to be definitely tricky. That's why we think that it would be beneficial for MARTE and VSL to complete the Annex F to add this information. In that context, we propose that: 1) every VSL domain class in Annex F shall provide information about its type. 2) if the type cannot be directly known, there shall be an explanation on how it can be computed (this is the case of all the subclasses of Expression and TimeExpression). 3) if information about the evaluation / execution semantics is provided then it shall be distinguished from the type information (because this is something really different). All this information would complete either the "constraint" and/or "semantics" section of Annex F.

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b1 — Fri, 21 Dec 2007 05:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    VSL complements MARTE for improving the UML data type system and the
    specification of expressions. The approach to define VSL was to balance both its
    precision and its level of formality in order to provide a very compact specification
    but still well-formed. MARTE Beta 1 and 2 have provided a good basis to develop
    a couple of tools supporting VSL parsing and type checking. There are, however,
    some aspects that need to be improved in the VSL specification to avoid
    ambiguity in tool implementations. Some of the ambiguity problems were
    described in the summary of this issue, but we can organize them more formally
    in the following categories:
    a) Some of the production rules are syntactically ambiguous because they are
    based on the UML model to which the VSL expression is attached (e.g., does a
    data type exist or not). This means that disambiguating rules have to be defined
    for those rules.
    b) In order to semantically evaluate VSL expressions, we need to define the type
    of each expression or value specification. The mapping of expressions to (data)
    types can be easily identified in many cases, but there are other cases that this
    requires making it explicit. Moreover, there are some expressions that cannot be
    evaluated to any existing data type defined in MARTE. For example, duration
    expressions have not a type counterpart in the library of MARTE primitive types. To solve item (a), we will add a section of “Disambiguating Rules” for each
    production rule. In addition, one of the suggestions proposed in the summary of
    this issue is to add a special section for a semantics description. It must be
    noted, however, that VSL is described in two main parts: abstract syntax and
    concrete syntax. The semantics of VSL construct is described in plain English as
    a part of the abstract syntax. More particularly, the semantics of VSL model
    elements is described in Annex F, section F.13. However, the mapping of
    abstract syntax constructs to concrete syntax constructs is not explicit. In this
    resolution, we propose to add this mapping by identifying the abstract syntax
    counterpart of each production rule explicitly in the concrete syntax section.
    To solve item (b), we will complete all the required primitive types and describe
    the types to which VSL expressions should be evaluated. For those expressions
    that cannot be directly mapped to a concrete type, we will provide rules to help
    evaluating them.
    In addition, we will add some clarifications to help VSL implementers to use this
    specification. The goal is that at the end of all processing every tool
    implementation should be able to produce the same well-formed instance of
    abstract syntax tree.

  • Summary:

    Subject: VSL should support definition and application of functions, derivatives, sequences and series. Details: In the early stage of a development process, it may be useful to model control laws of a RTES. VSL seems to be a very good fit for that purpose. However, it misses several mathematical concepts to provide a comprehensive support. VSL should support definitions of functions, derivatives, sequences and series.

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b1 — Fri, 21 Dec 2007 05:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    In VSL, functions are supported by means of:
    a) The definition of UML::Operations in DataTypes, for the declaration of
    functions in data type libraries.
    b) VSL::OperationCallExpression, for the specification of functions
    (reference/call to declared UML::Operations) in VSL expressions.
    We added a set of minimum operations/functions to MARTE primitive and data
    types (e.g., arithmetic and logic functions). The number of functions that could be
    added to VSL, and useful in the real-time and embedded system domain, is very
    large. In MARTE, we did not attempt to define all these functions. Instead, we
    proposed only a basic subset useful for general expressions. The initial intent
    was that further libraries could extend MARTE libraries to support domainspecific
    functions.
    However, we should assure that different kinds of functions can be declared with
    basis on the current VSL abstract and concrete syntaxes (e.g., the functions
    described in the summary of this issue). In this resolution, we describe how such
    functions (i.e., functions, derivatives, sequences and series) are added to the
    MARTE library of primitive types and supported by VSL.
    From a computer science viewpoint, every function declaration can be expressed
    as a tuple: <name, parameters/arguments, returning type>. For instance, all the
    functions supported by Matlab are defined in this way. In Matlab, functions are program routines, usually implemented in M-files that accept input arguments
    and return output arguments. Every mathematical (or not mathematical) function
    in Matlab is implemented with this basic principle2 (integrals, derivatives,
    matrices, potentials, optimization expressions, etc.). If we look at VSL, the
    “function” notion matches very well with the UML::Operation concept. Thus, VSL
    is supported in Operations for the declaration and specification (expression
    specifications) of functions. In VSL, however, our scope is just the language
    aspects. VSL does not support implementation support on those functions
    (although they could be implemented as methods –UML::Behavior- of such UML
    UML::Operations). Instead, VSL describes the semantic of functions in a
    declarative way.

  • Source: THALES ( Sebastien Demathieu)
  • Summary:

    Subject: In chapter 12, Details: The concept of allocation in MARTE is quite generic. Any UML::NamedElement can be used as allocation end. That enables the use of allocations in various kind of diagrams, for multiple purposes (e.g., structural, behavioural allocation.) In the current specification, allocations are supported by three stereotypes: Allocate, ApplicationAllocationEnd and ExecutionPlaformAllocationEnd. The allocatedTo and allocatedFrom properties of ApplicationAllocationEnd and ExecutionPlaformAllocationEnd are derived from the UML::Abstraction that is stereotyped as Allocate. However, creating an abstraction (i.e., a dependency) between two elements, implies that these elements belong to the same diagram, which is not always the case. Moreover, it limits the use of allocation to specific diagram types (e.g., not all the UML modeling tools allow the use of dependency on composite structures). Proposed correction: 1) Do not considerer allocatedTo and allocatedFrom as derived properties and allow end users to directly make use of the ApplicationAllocationEnd and ExecutionPlaformAllocationEnd stereoypes to express allocations. 2) Identify mechanisms to allow a characterisation of this allocation (allocation kind, allocation nature) the way its done in the Allocate stereotype.

    The concept of Dimension is not explicitly formalized in the NFP domain model
    nor in the NFP profile. However, the enumeration which gather the literals that
    are stereotyped by Unit can be already seen as a Dimension. We make this
    concept explicit here. The design of the current profile support this clarification
    with minimal changes.
    Note that SysML also includes the concept of dimension. As a first result of
    discussions between SysML and MARTE communities and a first step towards
    an alignment between both profiles in this domain, we propose to also explicitly
    support this concept.

  • Summary:

    [Alloc: Profile] The MARTE allocation concept aimed to refine the SysML allocation concept. Furthermore, it seems that the idea was to not be dependent on SysML by re-defining the same concepts in the MARTE context. For this reason, MARTE uses the same names for the generic stereotypes (<<allocated>> and <<allocate>>). However, there is a limitation in the MARTE <<allocated>> stereotype that does not allow modelers to have the same capabilities. More precisely, when using the <<allocated>> stereotype, we cannot refers to the target and source ends. We are forced to use the more specialized stereotypes: <<ApplicationAllocationEnd>> and <<ExecutionPlatformAllocationEnd>>, which is not always practical (the annotation process requires to pollute the target model) or is not always what modelers want to allocate (physical-logical allocation, or others support by SysML). So, I’d suggest to add properties: /allocatedFrom:NamedElement[*] and /allocatedTo:NamedElement[*] for the stereotype: <<Allocated>.

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b1 — Fri, 7 Dec 2007 05:00 GMT

  • Disposition Summary:

    Add the proposed property in the stereotype Allocated to maintain compatibility with SysML. Replace Figure 12.3 and the description text accordingly. If the property allocatedTo and allocatedFrom are already defined in the stereotype Allocated, they need not be redefined in the specialized stereotypes (ApplicationAllocationEnd and ExecutionPlatformExecutionEnd). Thus, these two stereotypes can be replaced by a mere attribute of type AllocationEndKind.
    All figures where either the stereotype ExecutionPlatformExecutionEnd or ApplicationAllocationEnd were displayed have been replaced by a new Figure with the new notation.
    No concept is introduced or removed. It is just a different lighter way to implement the domain model so as to be consistently compatible with the SysML allocation.
    The revised text assumes that resolution 12214 will be resolved by referring to sources of an allocation as clients and to targets as suppliers.

  • Summary:

    [GRM: Domain Model] A number of GRM domain concepts make it hard to understand and use. These mainly relate to its mapping with the UML profile and its refinement in the HRM, SRM and analysis profiles: a) Figures 10.3 and 10.4 illustrate the ‘resource’ concept as two kinds of entities: an instance (ResourceInstance) and a classifier (Resource). This separation is not explained and is not used along the remaining parts of the spec. I.e., all the associated or specialized concepts are related to ‘Resource’. Also, the profile only defines a ‘Resource’ stereotype. Furthermore, NFPs are only associated with ‘Resource’. What about NFPs related to ResourceInstances? ? I’d suggest to remove the ResourceInstance concept, as conceptually, has not any relevance, and create confussion. b) Fig. 10-13 introduces the concepts of ‘ResourceUsage’, ‘UsageTypedAmount’, which inherits from ‘ResourceAmount’. However, at UML profile definition level, only <<ResourceUsage>> is provided, by using the attributes of UsageTypedAmount (from the domain model). I’d suggest to harmonize both, domain model and profile. c) A double inheritance of ‘ComputingResource’ from ‘Resource’ has been defined (Fig. 10.6 and, Fig. 10.11 through ‘ProcessingResource’). I’d suggest to remove one of them. d) GRM attempts to be a generic framework for modelling resources. However, some of the attributes seems too specific and not useful when specializing this package (e.g., HRM & SRM). For instance, ‘packetSize’ in ‘CommunicationEndPoint’ (Fig. 10-8) is related to specific kinds of protocols. ‘speedFactor’ in ‘ProcessingResource’ is an analysis-specific parameters.

    [GQAM: Domain Model & Profile] The PrecedenceRelation concept (fig 15.3) could be used to specify delays due to e.g., queues. However, PrecedenceRelation only exists in the Domain Model. Its implementation is intended to be supported by existing UML concepts (e.g., forks, joints, etc.) I’d suggest to define the corresponding stereotype (<<PrecedenceRelation>>) in order to allow for modelling delays or other precedence patterns like event divisors: a number of event occurrences triggers an execution.

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b1 — Fri, 7 Dec 2007 05:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    This enhancement is not necessary, since everything it would provide can already be done using scenario Steps, and done better. However the method for showing an event divisor using steps should be added to the text.
    Since a precedence relation always leads to one or more steps, properties such as queueing etc can be attached to the step. The step is a better place for these properties because there may be multiple branches in a precedence relation (a branch or fork), each with its own properties. For example, a fork precedence would have a different waiting on each branch of the fork, which would be complex to describe or specify within the fork, but very easy on the following steps.
    An event divisor or multiplier can be provided using the CommStep stereotype. We assume that the event is a call invoking a Step. The call can be stereotyped as a CommStep, which has a repetition attribute. If this is set to N, it means the call is repeated N times, giving event multiplication. If it is set to 1/N, it means that every Nth execution of the sender gives a call... an event divisor. If the repetition attribute is specified as a deterministic NFP, it should be defined to be interpreted as 1/N for an integer N, determined by rounding to an integer if necessary. A stochastic division is also possible.

  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Fundacion Tecnalia Research and Innovation ( Mr. Huascar Espinoza Ph.D.)
  • Summary:

    [NFP: Profile]. Fig 8.4 shows a domain model for NFP declaration. In this domain model, the NFP concept has to attributes (statisticalQualifier + direction). However, these two attributes do not appear in the corresponding Stereotype: <<Nfp>> (Fig. 8-5). Section 8.3.2.1 justifies this by saying: “the attributes of NFP, statistical qualifier and direction, are implemented in the library of NFP Types”. However, it could be useful to allow stereotype users to define these two parameters at the NFP declaration stage (and not only at the value specification stage). On the other hand, the current mechanism to define these two parameters at the NFP declaration stage (default values of NFPs), is not strict enough, as users can modify default values. So, I propose to put this two attributes (statisticalQualifier + direction) in the <<Nfp>> stereotype.

  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    If we adopt these two attributes for the 'Nfp' stereotype, there may exist some issues regarding to consistency and duplication of information. Indeed, statisticalQualifier and direction would be able to be specified in 'Nfp' and in the value specification too (e.g., maxLatency= (value=5, unit=ms, statQ=max)).
    Another question that rises is why other qualifiers would not able to be specified in 'Nfp' attributes (e.g., source) in the same way.
    In order to keep consistency and to avoid confusions between the domain model and profile definition, both 'statisticalQualifier' and 'direction' attributes of the 'NFP' metaclass are removed from the domain model.
    This means that the proposal to include these two attributes in the stereotype definition is not accepted. However, for comprehensibility, they are removed from the domain model.

  • Summary:

    [NFP] A very useful concept for NFP annotations could be the notion of ‘NFP level’. For instance, a NFP level may identify a group of non-functional values that are valid for a specific system operation mode. More specifically, in a component-based architecture, components can support different working modes, and these working modes may provide different non-functional values or qualities for the same services. In infrastructures supporting dynamic resource management, the resources may offer different non-functional values depending on the system load. From a conceptual viewpoint, a NFP level can identify a level of model refinement. For example, one may define NFP values according to available estimates in early development phases, while further accurate measurement values may be annotated in the same models. A NFP level, in this case, can offer a mechanism to organize non-functional values according to successive refinement stages.

  • Disposition Summary:

    In general, this is a problem than might need some especial mechanism in UML,
    or a trick/cheat annotation mechanism. We recognize that we need the ability to
    express differing configurations for modal analysis or tradeoff analysis. However,
    having multiple value annotations for arbitrary cases or situations is clearly
    beyond the scope of the MARTE Profile and is within the scope of the UML
    metamodel and modeling generally. For instance, this could be supported by
    allowing applying a given stereotype multiple times in the same UML model
    element. We need to raise the issue within the UML Revision Task Force.
    Also, MARTE offers AnalysisContext and VSL offers variables and the two are
    intended for multi-case analysis.
    Finally, modeling of NFP_Constraint annotations for specific operational model is
    treated in Issue 12797 (HLAM work group).
    Hence, we propose to close this issue with no change.

Once that the notification has occurred in one way or another, do we access to this data with something like a ReadStructuralFeatureAction (because ports are structural features)?

concept of "resource"

  • Key: MARTE-7
  • Legacy Issue Number: 11402
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: THALES ( Sebastien Demathieu)
  • Summary:

    The General Resource Model of MARTE seems to define the concept of "resource" both at the instance and classifier levels. For instance, the GRM::Resource stereotype extends both InstanceSpecification and Classifier.

    The SwResource stereotype defined in the Software Resource Model of MARTE specializes the GRM::Resource stereotype. However, reading the SRM chapter, it seems that its use is much more focused on description of classifiers (to characterize properties or behavioral features for instance) than instances.

    In that context, does it make sense to apply a SRM::SwResource stereotype or one of its subclasses (for instance SRM::SwSchedulableResource) on an instance specification? Note that it seems to be legal given that SRM::SwResource specializes GRM::Resource, which extends InstanceSpecification.

    I would be pretty handy to do so, in order to describe a resource platform model provided in input of a scheduling analysis.

    Operators (e.g., +, -, *, /, =, <, >) are not defined for the types in the MARTE_Library::BasicNFP_Types package. Such operators are required if one wants to define expressions such as "(end - start) < (10, ms)" where "end" and "start" are ObsCallExpression, for instance. Ideally, all the operators defined for the MARTE_Library::MARTE_PrimitiveTypes types should also exist for their MARTE_Library::BasicNFP_Types counterpart

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b1 — Mon, 8 Oct 2007 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    One aspect that appears here is that the operations for NFP types like
    NFP_Real, NFP_String, etc, should be the same as the primitive type
    counterparts. So, it seems natural to reuse those operation definitions. One
    mechanism to reuse the operations (e.g., +, -, *, /, =, <, >) is to inherit NFP types
    from the primitive types.
    Hence, this resolution proposes to define the operations of Nfp_Types by
    inheriting from the corresponding MARTE primitive types.
    In addition, the semantic of such NfpTypes operations (in physical Nfp_Types
    such as NFP_Duration, NFP_Temperature, etc.) are different than their primitive
    type counterparts (Real primitive types). Indeed, operations in NfpTypes involve
    evaluating not only the “value” part but also the measurement “unit” part. This is
    left out of the scope of this specification, and an implementation supporting
    measurement unit conversion should take care of this.

Annex B VSL BNF

  • Key: MARTE-23
  • Legacy Issue Number: 11548
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: THALES ( Sebastien Demathieu)
  • Summary:

    In the VSL BNF, the use of the "[ ]" symbol should not be limited to collections. One may want to use it along with variable call expressions (e.g. "collec[2]"), property call expressions. Maybe other kinds of value specifications also apply.

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b1 — Mon, 8 Oct 2007 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    The current mechanism of defining operations on data types allows one to define a given operation independently of the current value itself. For instance, a property could be typed by a Collection of Integers, and this collection could be specified by a Variable. So, we can apply to this variable, all the operations defined for Collections.

    This issue is also related to Issue 11547, and do not need any modification in the spec.

  • Summary:

    The VSL BNF defines a "[ ]" symbol that can be used along with a collection. The specification introduces the example: "

    {'a', 'b', 'c', 'd'}

    [2]". However, there is no related concept (access to a collection) in the VSL meta-model.

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b1 — Mon, 8 Oct 2007 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    This notation (to get collection elements by using the index), comes from the TVL language in SPT, but the mentioned example was not updated to the current VSL mechanism to define operations in data types. For that, VSL uses the same approach as OCL, so that the operation for finding an element in a given collection should be defined and described at library level, in the operations of the concerned data types (collections in this case). The specification of the function will be allowed by using OperationCallExpression.

    The resolution is to remove the proposed examples from VSL.

    If new operations are required for Collections in the MARTE library of data types, this should be solved by posting a separated issue.

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b1 — Tue, 11 Sep 2007 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    VSL expressions are specified in OpaqueExpressions. Adding new opaque expressions within a VSL expression would make VSL expressions complex, and without a real added value. Hence, we do not support in VSL nested expressions written in new languages. Note that this doesn't mean that we do not allow one to extend VSL. VSL can be extended by reusing its metaclasses, as the Clock Constraint Language in MARTE.

    Hence, the term <opaque-expression> in the VSL grammar is not right. This resolution proposes to remove that term from the VSL grammar.

    Resolution:
    A BoundedSubtype, as other data types, defines a space of valid values. However, it doesn't describe any particular value property. Specifying a default value is to be done at property declaration level, and it's already supported by UML itself. This approach is natural from a pragmatic viewpoint (different properties typed by the proposed BoundedSubtypes could have different default values), and from the general practice in (modeling, programming) languages.

    For these reasons, we don't add default values for BoundedSubtype, or whatever data types.

non-terminal symbol

  • Key: MARTE-25
  • Legacy Issue Number: 11550
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: THALES ( Sebastien Demathieu)
  • Summary:

    The VSL grammar introduces a non-terminal symbol <namespace> in the syntax definition of property call expression and variable call expression. However, this symbol seems to be missing in the syntax definition of enumeration specification as well as observation call expression. As a consequence, it is not possible to reference without ambiguity two time instant observations with the same name but with different fully qualified names. That prevents from using observations with similar names in different packages.

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b1 — Mon, 8 Oct 2007 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    For the case of Enumeration specification, it is not necessary to specify the namespace. Enumerations values are always related to a typed property or tag definition. The type of those properties or tag definitions (an Enumeration data type) defines the scope of the enumeration literal specified.
    For the case of Observation Call Expression, the namespace is missing. This resolution proposes to add such a namespace.

  • Reported: MARTE 1.0b1 — Mon, 8 Oct 2007 04:00 GMT
  • Disposition: Resolved — MARTE 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    To allow building unambiguous expressions (mainly arithmetical ones), the
    language should include both proper rules supporting parentheses (i.e., “(“ and
    “)”) as well as precedence rules to specify the order in operations evaluation.
    In VSL, these aspects concern two different sections of MARTE. Parentheses
    need to be specified in the VSL grammar section, and precedence rules in the
    library of primitive types. The latter is because “operations” (e.g., arithmetic
    operations: +, -, *, /) are defined as operations of MARTE primitive types (Real,
    Integer, etc.).
    Hence, this resolution proposes to add/modify VSL as defined below.

  • Summary:

    FlowPort and MessagePort are subclasses of InteractionPort. These two classes have common properties: isConjugated and isAtomatic (there is actually a third one, “direction”, but I think there is an issue with this property). These properties could be directly defined as properties of the common parent class, i.e. InteractionPort.
