SUMMARY:Public defense: Robbert Jongeling’s doctoral thesis
DESCRIPTION:The public defense of Robbert Jongeling’s doctoral thesis in Computer Science will take place at Mälardalen University\, room Gamma (Västerås Campus) at 13:30 on 2nd December 2022\, title: \nLightweight consistency checking for advancing continuous model-based development in industry\nThe faculty examiner is Professor Antonio Vallecillo\, UMA\, Spain. \nThe examining committee consists of Professor Ileana Ober\, IRIT/University of Toulouse\, France; Dr Henrik Lönn\, Volvo\, Sweden and Professor Manuel Wimmer\, JKU\, Austria. \nReserve is Professor Alessandro Papadopoulos\, MDU\, Sweden. \nSummary\nThe engineering of modern software‐intensive systems requires collaboration between many people in many different disciplines. To effectively design and communicate\, these engineers create a large number of development artefacts throughout the system development\, such as models\, informal diagrams\, and textual\ndescriptions. These artefacts describe the intended structure and behaviour of systems. Contradictions between the artefacts or misunderstandings based on the understandings of engineers and what is captured in the artefacts can lead to unmet requirements\, bugs\, overruns of development budget and time\, or even system\nfailures. \nInconsistencies between these development artefacts occur continuously throughout the system’s development and maintenance\, simply due to the incremental nature of the development of artefacts. To prevent the inconsistencies causing the earlier mentioned bad outcomes\, it is often desirable to check to what extent various development artefacts are consistent with each other\, that is\, if they contain contradicting information about the same aspects of the system. \nThe potential informality and incompleteness of models and other development artefacts\, in combination with a strife for shorter development iterations\, presents challenges to consistency checking approaches. In this thesis\, we consider model‐based development settings in which short development cycles are aspired. We show a tight coupling between introducing short development cycles and the need for increased support for consistency checking across models and other artefacts. In particular\, we identify the need for lightweight consistency\nchecking approaches\, which we break down into four required aspects. \nThis thesis supplements the literature on consistency checking by providing industrial perspectives in the following two ways. First\, we survey industrial settings and present the various needs for consistency checking based on a broad range of settings and scenarios. Moreover\, we use these industrial settings to define in what aspects a consistency checking approach should be lightweight to enable its industrial adoption. Second\, we include detailed experiences of iintroducing lightweight consistency checks in industrial settings. In summary\, this thesis presents contributions to consistency management in complex industrial settings to facilitate the adoption of continuous model-based development. \nRead more at the MDU web site:\nhttps://www.mdu.se/en/malardalen-university/calendar/2022/the-public-defense-of-robbert-jongelings-doctoral-thesis-in-computer-science \nVideo: “From informal architecture diagrams to flexible blended models” by Robbert Jongeling\nThis video is a short summary of the paper “From informal architecture diagrams to flexible blended models” by Robbert Jongeling from Mälardalen University.
