Semantic layered architecture to integrate FR/NFR in software performance engineering
Isaac Lera, Ramón Puigjaner · 2010
The integration process using UML Profile for Schedulability, Performance, and Time Specification (SPT) or MARTE specification presents some deficiencies due to the inability to formalize the representation criteria and to relate information in a transparent way between the outputs of performance models and software designs. The drawbacks of FR and NFR model integration appears to be crucial for the real application of several SPE techniques, since the performance modelling and the software modelling are not semantically related because there are not explicit and formal semantic interpretation of the concepts. To avoid this, we propose a semantic architecture based on well-known Web Semantic Layered Architecture
