  1. Software engineering models, methods and tools for “post-crisis" lifecycle management Dr. Sergey V. Zykov, Ph.D. State University – Higher School of Economics The 3d Conference on Information Technologies in Professional Activities (ITPA) November 8–12, 2011, Izhevsk, Russia

  2. Software engineering models, methods and tools for “post-crisis" lifecycle management Heterogeneous ESE: a challenge, esp. under the crisis • The methodology combines formal models (incl. modified spiral model) and SDK for class-level association-based relationships • Problem domain features: • heavy data burden - in 2005 total data size of Intel Corp. exceeded 3.2 petabytes (over 120,000 employees in 57 countries) • - high object classes complexity • - incomplete information on the structure of certain instantiations of the classes; • - the set of class attributes and operations can be determined rigorously. • Reasons for methodology application (besides crisis): • - variety of heterogeneous classes, • - importance of association-based inter-class relationships • - class inference possible even under certain % of weak-structured class instances The 3d Conference on Information Technologies in Professional Activities (ITPA) November 8–12, 2011, Izhevsk, Russia

  3. Software engineering models, methods and tools for “post-crisis" lifecycle management Software production crisis and SE era advent • 1960-s: the software production crisis begins • Problems/Disproportions: • - anarchic SDL vs. growing system complexity • - no SDL methodologies (except“build-and fix” approach) • - the crisis is in our minds, not just in economics • - an adequate (R&D-based, adaptive) SDL methodology required! • SE – thesci-&-tech discipline to overcome the crisis • SE development stages: • - 1960-s: “hand-made” art – unique and precious masterpieces • - 1970-s: “manufacturing” – mission-critical systems • - 1990-s: “machine-tool conveyor” – CASE + team development The 3d Conference on Information Technologies in Professional Activities (ITPA) November 8–12, 2011, Izhevsk, Russia

  4. Software engineering models, methods and tools for “post-crisis" lifecycle management Comparing SDL and material production • 1967 - The NATO Conference on SE • Q.: Can SW be constructed/produced as a physical/material object? • Analysis: • - step-by-step elaboration • -maintenance (bridges may cost $0for years, not SW) • - “intellectual degeneration” (complex SW platforms change fast) • - prototype reliability • - “brute force” / “bulletproof “ approach (a bridge twice thicker) • - residual faults (NASA flight simulation) • Conclusions: • - SW production is similar to material one in certain aspects • - SW production is entirely different from material one in others • A.: NO, Lifecycles are fundamentally different The 3d Conference on Information Technologies in Professional Activities (ITPA) November 8–12, 2011, Izhevsk, Russia

  5. Software engineering models, methods and tools for “post-crisis" lifecycle management Optimizing lifecycle: the answer to the crisis • Every SSDL stage can be optimized (analysis, req.spec., design, implementation, maintenance, etc.) • Documenting should be optimized as well • Optimization basis = models + methods + tools integration: • - discrete metrics (residual faults, KLOC, etc.) + heuristics • - practical applicability vs. mathematically “single-best” solution • SSDL model basic features: • - iterative nature • - sequential elaboration • - incremental development • - risk analysis • - modified incremental/spiral model • - best applicable for enterprise-level projects (CASE + risks) The 3d Conference on Information Technologies in Professional Activities (ITPA) November 8–12, 2011, Izhevsk, Russia

  6. Software engineering models, methods and tools for “post-crisis" lifecycle management The methodology vs. ontology-based approaches (OBA): • OBA (e.g. Cyc) efficiency is comparable only under a total class-level uncertainty, which is a different problem domain than ECM • Thesaurus needed for the OBA to meet the relevance required • The methodology uses similar foundations and tools as OBA (UML and XML-based tools, predicate calculus-based CycL, “conceptual model” etc.) for data modelling and integration • OBA lack a balanced combination of formal models and industry-level SDKs (incl. visualization) for ECM lifecycle, resulting in low scalability and non-suitability for the major enterprise-level tasks The 3d Conference on Information Technologies in Professional Activities (ITPA) November 8–12, 2011, Izhevsk, Russia

  7. Software engineering models, methods and tools for “post-crisis" lifecycle management Objective, tasks, theoretical background Objective:to make a software development methodology, which supports entire lifecycle of the enterprise software in the global computational environment Tasks: - formalizing stages and levels of the methodology; - mathematical modeling; - creating CASE- and RAD-tools ; - implementing the methodology (prototype, full-scale).

  11. Software engineering models, methods and tools for “post-crisis" lifecycle management Problem domain modeling Data object modeling: “classobjectvalue” Class– collection of data objects of the integrated problem domain; Object– class instantiation by CMS template (metadata partial evaluation); Value– static HTML page generated by CMS (full evaluation). Benefits: - evolves from the object-oriented approach; - develops the existing models ([V.E.Wolfengagen’sCM] et al.) in relation to global computational environment The 3d Conference on Information Technologies in Professional Activities (ITPA) November 8–12, 2011, Izhevsk, Russia

  13. Software engineering models, methods and tools for “post-crisis" lifecycle management Formal syntax of the CMS abstract machine • Let us collect all the CMS abstract machine language identifiers into Ide domain, commands –into Com domain, and expressions – into Exp domain: • Ide ={I | I – identifier}; • Com ={C | C – command}; • Exp ={E | E – expression}.

  14. Software engineering models, methods and tools for “post-crisis" lifecycle management Formal semantics of the CMS abstract machine (1) Order of construction: • standard domains (most often used); • finitedomains (including explicitly enumerable elements); • domain constructors – operations of building new domains out of existing ones; • composite domain formalization based on standard domains and domain constructors. Domain constructors: - functional space: [D1D2]; - Cartesian product: [D1D2…Dn]; - sequence: D*; - disjunctive sum:[D1+  D2+… +Dn].
