Abstract

This paper presents both a language and process for producing verified models for systems that can be described as network structures. Analysing technical systems with interrelated components, a common data model for technical networks was elaborated and represented formally by UML. The UML model was transformed to XML and specified by means of XML Schema. The developed set of XML Schema documents for modelling of network structures is denoted as the XNetMod language. Use of XML-based language allows to profit from available XML tools and CAD with XML export. Moreover, XML-Schema-based specification supports model validation from early phase of modelling, and tools for the XML-Schema-based validation are available. Additionally, model structure verification was provided by algebraic and pattern-based methods. The design technique was successfully applied to different application domains, which were described in terms of network structures.
