A goal-driven approach to modeling security concerns in network management system
Chia-Ling Wu · 2015
Recently, aspect-oriented approaches have resulted in a tremendous impact on the processing of broadly-scoped properties during the development of software systems. However, the semantics of weaving these crosscutting concerns into models of software designs cannot easily be represented with the extent of UML notation at the early stage of software development life-cycle. As an attempt towards the investigation of how the crosscutting behavior takes place, I proposed, in this work, a goal-driven approach to modeling aspectual behavior (specifically, security concerns) in UML behavioral diagrams with the proposed interaction operators based on the aspectual weaving semantics. To further exemplify my points, the network management system is chosen as a vehicle to illustrate the proposed approach.
