可视化体系结构描述语言XYZ/ADL

Visual Architecture Description Language XYZ/ADL

提出一种基于时序逻辑语言 XYZ/ E的可视化体系结构描述语言 XYZ/ ADL(XYZ/ architecturedescription language) .它采用组件、连接件及交互端等设计单元 ,能描述常用的多种软件体系结构 .XYZ/ E能以统一的形式同时表示静态语义和动态语义 ,因此 ,以 XYZ/ E为基础的 XYZ/ ADL能在统一框架下完成不同抽象级体系结构设计之间的逐步过渡 .

In this paper, the authors describe a visual language XYZ/ADL (XYZ/architecture description language) for software architecture description based on XYZ/E to support a new approach of architecture based programming. XYZ/ADL is composed of components, connectors and ports, by which it can describe many commonly used kinds of software architectures. Since XYZ/E can represent both statistic and dynamic semantics in a unified form, XYZ/ADL which is built on it can finish smoothly the transformation between architectures at different abstract levels in a uniform frame.
