Dr. Jon Whittle: Simulating Use Cases for Software Requirements Validation
Beginn: 22.06.2005, 17:00 Uhr Ort: TU Braunschweig, Informatikzentrum, Mühlenpfordtstraße 23, 1. OG, Hörsaal M 160 Webseite: http://www.cs.tu-bs.de/kolloquium/whittle.htm
Use cases are now an accepted method for developing software requirements. However, software errors, budget overruns and delays can still occur because the use case requirements are not validated at an early stage. This talk will present a technique for early simulation and validation of use-case based requirements. The technique is based around an algorithm for automatically transforming use cases into executable form and is accompanied by a methodology (SCASP) that provides guidelines for its use. The method has been piloted on projects at NASA Ames Research Center and Motorola India.
Speaker Bio: Jon Whittle has six years experience as a senior researcher and manager of research projects at NASA Ames Research Center. He has led research efforts on building knowledge-based systems for NASA applications, advanced software modeling tools andsoftware verification. Jon also has worked as a visiting professor in India and in Germany. He has over 35 referreed publications to his credit, was conference chair for the 2003 International Conference on the Unified Modeling Language and is an editor for the Journal of Software and Systems Modeling. In July, Jon Whittle will take up a position as Associate Professor of Information and Software Engineering at George Mason University, Fairfax, VA.
