The correctness of model transformations is a crucial element for model-driven engineering of high quality software. In particular, behavior preservation is the most important correctness property avoiding the introduction of semantic errors during the model-driven engineering process. Behavior preservation verification techniques either show that specific properties are preserved, or more generally and complex, they show some kind of behavioral equivalence or refinement between source and target model of the transformation. Both kinds of behavior preservation verification goals have been presented with automatic tool support for the instance level, i.e. for a given source and target model specified by the model transformation. However, up until now there is no automatic verification approach available at the transformation level, i.e. for all source and target models specified by the model transformation. In this report, we extend our results presented in [27] and outline a new sophisticated approach for the automatic verification of behavior preservation captured by bisimulation resp. simulation for model transformations specified by triple graph grammars and semantic definitions given by graph transformation rules. In particular, we show that the behavior preservation problem can be reduced to invariant checking for graph transformation and that the resulting checking problem can be addressed by our own invariant checker even for a complex example where a sequence chart is transformed into communicating automata. We further discuss today's limitations of invariant checking for graph transformation and motivate further lines of future work in this direction.

Today, software has become an intrinsic part of complex distributed embedded real-time systems. The next generation of embedded real-time systems will interconnect the today unconnected systems via complex software parts and the service-oriented paradigm. Therefore besides timed behavior and probabilistic behaviour also structure dynamics, where the architecture can be subject to changes at run-time, e.g. when dynamic binding of service end-points is employed or complex collaborations are established dynamically, is required. However, a modeling and analysis approach that combines all these necessary aspects does not exist so far. To fill the identified gap, we propose Probabilistic Timed Graph Transformation Systems (PTGTSs) as a high-level description language that supports all the necessary aspects of structure dynamics, timed behavior, and probabilistic behavior. We introduce the formal model of PTGTSs in this paper and present a mapping of models with finite state spaces to probabilistic timed automata (PTA) that allows to use the PRISM model checker to analyze PTGTS models with respect to PTCTL properties.

While offering significant expressive power, graph transformation systems often come with rather limited capabilities for automated analysis, particularly if systems with many possible initial graphs and large or infinite state spaces are concerned. One approach that tries to overcome these limitations is inductive invariant checking. However, the verification of inductive invariants often requires extensive knowledge about the system in question and faces the approach-inherent challenges of locality and lack of context. To address that, this report discusses k-inductive invariant checking for graph transformation systems as a generalization of inductive invariants. The additional context acquired by taking multiple (k) steps into account is the key difference to inductive invariant checking and is often enough to establish the desired invariants without requiring the iterative development of additional properties. To analyze possibly infinite systems in a finite fashion, we introduce a symbolic encoding for transformation traces using a restricted form of nested application conditions. As its central contribution, this report then presents a formal approach and algorithm to verify graph constraints as k-inductive invariants. We prove the approach's correctness and demonstrate its applicability by means of several examples evaluated with a prototypical implementation of our algorithm.

Software development tools that work and behave consistently across different programming languages are helpful for developers, because they do not have to familiarize themselves with new tooling whenever they decide to use a new language. Also, being able to combine multiple programming languages in a program increases reusability, as developers do not have to recreate software frameworks and libraries in the language they develop in and can reuse existing software instead. However, developers often have a broad choice with regard to tools, some of which are designed for only one specific programming language. Various Integrated Development Environments have support for multiple languages, but are usually unable to provide a consistent programming experience due to different features of language runtimes. Furthermore, common mechanisms that allow reuse of software written in other languages usually use the operating system or a network connection as the abstract layer. Tools, however, often cannot support such indirections well and are therefore less useful in debugging scenarios for example. In this report, we present a novel approach that aims to improve the programming experience with regard to working with multiple high-level programming languages. As part of this approach, we reuse the tools of a Smalltalk programming environment for other languages and build a multi-language virtual execution environment which is able to provide the same runtime capabilities for all languages. The prototype system Squimera is an implementation of our approach and demonstrates that it is possible to reuse development tools, so that they behave in the same way across all supported programming languages. In addition, it provides convenient means to reuse and even mix software libraries and frameworks written in different languages without breaking the debugging experience.

Version control is a widely used practice among software developers. It reduces the risk of changing their software and allows them to manage different configurations and to collaborate with others more efficiently. This is amplified by code sharing platforms such as GitHub or Bitbucket. Most version control systems track files (e.g., Git, Mercurial, and Subversion do), but some programming environments do not operate on files, but on objects instead (many Smalltalk implementations do). Users of such environments want to use version control for their objects anyway. Specialized version control systems, such as the ones available for Smalltalk systems (e.g., ENVY/Developer and Monticello), focus on a small subset of objects that can be versioned. Most of these systems concentrate on the tracking of methods, classes, and configurations of these. Other user-defined and user-built objects are either not eligible for version control at all, tracking them involves complicated workarounds, or a fixed, domain-unspecific serialization format is used that does not equally suit all kinds of objects. Moreover, these version control systems that are specific to a programming environment require their own code sharing platforms;popular, well-established platforms for file-based version control systems cannot be used or adapter solutions need to be implemented and maintained. To improve the situation for version control of arbitrary objects, a framework for tracking, converting, and storing of objects is presented in this report. It allows editions of objects to be stored in an exchangeable, existing backend version control system. The platforms of the backend version control system can thus be reused. Users and objects have control over how objects are captured for the purpose of version control. Domain-specific requirements can be implemented. The storage format (i.e. the file format, when file-based backend version control systems are used) can also vary from one object to another. Different editions of objects can be compared and sets of changes can be applied to graphs of objects. A generic way for capturing and restoring that supports most kinds of objects is described. It models each object as a collection of slots. Thus, users can begin to track their objects without first having to implement version control supplements for their own kinds of objects. The proposed architecture is evaluated using a prototype implementation that can be used to track objects in Squeak/Smalltalk with Git. The prototype improves the suboptimal standing of user objects with respect to version control described above and also simplifies some version control tasks for classes and methods as well. It also raises new problems, which are discussed in this report as well.

Metric Temporal Graph Logic Over Typed Attributed Graphs written by Holger Giese and has been published by Universitätsverlag Potsdam this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2018 with Computers categories.


Various kinds of typed attributed graphs are used to represent states of systems from a broad range of domains. For dynamic systems, established formalisms such as graph transformations provide a formal model for defining state sequences. We consider the extended case where time elapses between states and introduce a logic to reason about these sequences. With this logic we express properties on the structure and attributes of states as well as on the temporal occurrence of states that are related by their inner structure, which no formal logic over graphs accomplishes concisely so far. Firstly, we introduce graphs with history by equipping every graph element with the timestamp of its creation and, if applicable, its deletion. Secondly, we define a logic on graphs by integrating the temporal operator until into the well-established logic of nested graph conditions. Thirdly, we prove that our logic is equally expressive to nested graph conditions by providing a suitable reduction. Finally, the implementation of this reduction allows for the tool-based analysis of metric temporal properties for state sequences. Verschiedene Arten von getypten attributierten Graphen werden benutzt, um Zustände von Systemen in vielen unterschiedlichen Anwendungsbereichen zu beschreiben. Der etablierte Formalismus der Graphtransformationen bietet ein formales Model, um Zustandssequenzen für dynamische Systeme zu definieren. Wir betrachten den erweiterten Fall von solchen Sequenzen, in dem Zeit zwischen zwei verschiedenen Systemzuständen vergeht, und führen eine Logik ein, um solche Sequenzen zu beschreiben. Mit dieser Logik drücken wir zum einen Eigenschaften über die Struktur und die Attribute von Zuständen aus und beschreiben zum anderen temporale Vorkommen von Zuständen, die durch ihre innere Struktur verbunden sind. Solche Eigenschaften können bisher von keiner der existierenden Logiken auf Graphen vergleichbar darstellt werden. Erstens führen wir Graphen mit Änderungshistorie ein, indem wir jedes Graphelement mit einem Zeitstempel seiner Erzeugung und, wenn nötig, seiner Löschung versehen. Zweitens definieren wir eine Logik auf Graphen, indem wir den Temporaloperator Until in die wohl-etablierte Logik der verschachtelten Graphbedingungen integrieren. Drittens beweisen wir, dass unsere Logik gleich ausdrucksmächtig ist, wie die Logik der verschachtelten Graphbedingungen, indem wir eine passende Reduktionsoperation definieren. Zuletzt erlaubt uns die Implementierung dieser Reduktionsoperation die werkzeukbasierte Analyse von metrisch-temporallogischen Eigenschaften für Zustandssequenzen zu führen.

Graphs are ubiquitous in Computer Science. For this reason, in many areas, it is very important to have the means to express and reason about graph properties. In particular, we want to be able to check automatically if a given graph property is satisfiable. Actually, in most application scenarios it is desirable to be able to explore graphs satisfying the graph property if they exist or even to get a complete and compact overview of the graphs satisfying the graph property. We show that the tableau-based reasoning method for graph properties as introduced by Lambers and Orejas paves the way for a symbolic model generation algorithm for graph properties. Graph properties are formulated in a dedicated logic making use of graphs and graph morphisms, which is equivalent to firstorder logic on graphs as introduced by Courcelle. Our parallelizable algorithm gradually generates a finite set of so-called symbolic models, where each symbolic model describes a set of finite graphs (i.e., finite models) satisfying the graph property. The set of symbolic models jointly describes all finite models for the graph property (complete) and does not describe any finite graph violating the graph property (sound). Moreover, no symbolic model is already covered by another one (compact). Finally, the algorithm is able to generate from each symbolic model a minimal finite model immediately and allows for an exploration of further finite models. The algorithm is implemented in the new tool AutoGraph.

Die digitale Entwicklung durchdringt unser Bildungssystem, doch Schulen sind auf die Veränderungen kaum vorbereitet: Überforderte Lehrer/innen, infrastrukturell schwach ausgestattete Unterrichtsräume und unzureichend gewartete Computernetzwerke sind keine Seltenheit. Veraltete Hard- und Software erschweren digitale Bildung in Schulen eher, als dass sie diese ermöglichen: Ein zukunftssicherer Ansatz ist es, die Rechner weitgehend aus den Schulen zu entfernen und Bildungsinhalte in eine Cloud zu überführen. Zeitgemäßer Unterricht benötigt moderne Technologie und eine zukunftsorientierte Infrastruktur. Eine Schul-Cloud (https://hpi.de/schul-cloud) kann dabei helfen, die digitale Transformation in Schulen zu meistern und den fächerübergreifenden Unterricht mit digitalen Inhalten zu bereichern. Den Schüler/innen und Lehrkräften kann sie viele Möglichkeiten eröffnen: einen einfachen Zugang zu neuesten, professionell gewarteten Anwendungen, die Vernetzung verschiedener Lernorte, Erleichterung von Unterrichtsvorbereitung und Differenzierung. Die Schul-Cloud bietet Flexibilität, fördert die schul- und fächerübergreifende Anwendbarkeit und schafft eine wichtige Voraussetzung für die gesellschaftliche Teilhabe und Mitgestaltung der digitalen Welt. Neben den technischen Komponenten werden im vorliegenden Bericht ausgewählte Dienste der Schul-Cloud exemplarisch beschrieben und weiterführende Schritte aufgezeigt. Das in Zusammenarbeit mit zahlreichen Expertinnen und Experten am Hasso-Plattner-Institut (HPI) entwickelte und durch das Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF) geförderte Konzept einer Schul-Cloud stellt eine wichtige Grundlage für die Einführung Cloud-basierter Strukturen und -Dienste im Bildungsbereich dar. Gemeinsam mit dem nationalen Excellence-Schulnetzwerk MINT-EC als Kooperationspartner startet ab sofort die Pilotphase. Aufgrund des modularen, skalierbaren Ansatzes der Schul-Cloud kommt dem infrastrukturellen Prototypen langfristig das Potential zu, auch über die begrenzte Anzahl an Pilotschulen hinaus bundesweit effizient eingesetzt zu werden.
