OO Conceptual Schemas
Requirements Engineering


This research area is oriented to the study and
definition of Requirements Engineering Methods that
are capable to obtain Conceptual Schemas in an
automatic way.

Function Refinement Tree

Use Cases

Sequence Diagrams

Class Diagrams
People Involved: Emilio, Hugo, Alicia, Margarita, Luis

User Interfaces
Requirements Engineering


This research area studies how to obtain user
interfaces from the system requirements specification.
The requirements are collected using specification
techniques as Use Cases.

Use Cases

Class Diagrams

Message Sequence Charts (MSC)

State Transition Diagrams

Navigational Model
People Involved: Juan, Hugo, Alicia, Margarita

Software Patterns and Code
Generation

This area develops a methodological framework that
incorporates software patterns in the software
production process. It provides a pattern-based
automatic software production method.
– Specifying Conceptual Patterns
– Creating Pattern Languages for Conceptual Modeling
– Applying Design Patterns to Automate the Code Generation
Process

People Involved: Vicente, Manoli, Eva
10
E-Modeling

This area proposes a software production method for
WEB environments. This method is mainly applied to
develop electronic comerce applications.
– Navigational Maps
– Navigational Contexts
– Navigational Links
– Navigational Classes
– Relationships (Context and Contextual Dependence)

People Involved: Oscar, Silvia, Juanjo, Sergio,
Ricardo
11
Software Quality

This area proposes techniques to measure the quality
of a software product. It provides quality attributes
and metrics to evaluate the software product at the
Problem Space (Quality of Conceptual Schemas) and at
the Solution Space.
– Quality of WEB Sites
– Quality of Conceptual Schemas
– Metrics: OO Function Points and WEB Function Points

People Involved: Oscar, Silvia, Rafa

Distributed Objects


In this area software technologies based on distributed
objects (like COM+ and CORBA) are applied to the
software production methods (OO-Method in our case)
