Project : Modeling and System Design

Duration: since 1990

Keywords:

Modeling; software architecture; system design; concurrency; Petri nets

Objectives:

To capture, analyze, understand, evaluate and design systems, models are used. When modeling distributed, concurrent and complex systems, the modeler needs an adequate repertoire. Over the last two decades, our group TGI researched formal as well as semi-formal or informal foundations. We examined several important concepts for distributed, concurrent and complex systems using different formalisms, especially higher-order Petri nets. Naturally, our contributions are targeted in different directions. We disuss the responsibility of actors as well as their multiple perspectives. We base them on theoretical/conceptual foundations of informatics, especially the concurrency theory of C.A. Petri and follow-up work. Our current work pursues the development of an integrated approach to system modeling that includes practical aspects for concrete applications as well as a conceptual and theoretical foundation. The concepts are borrowed from object-, agent- and organisation-orientation while the basics are based on the work of C.A. Petri. Our results include the PAOSE-approach, unit theory and proposals for the architecture of concurrent systems.
