The software architecture can be understood as an abstraction of the software system that allows for reasoning about system properties. As such, it needs to be able to describe the system to everyone involved in the software development life cycle. By providing reasoning abilities to the architecture, it can become intelligent enough to be able to draw conclusions about itself, thus making it a Digital Twin of a real-life implementation. This paper presents one possible solution to this problem by using Controlled Natural Language (CNL) and OWL ontologies. Xtext and Java have been used to translate CNL into OWL. A case study containing a simple software architecture described by this solution is also presented in this paper.

摘要

The software architecture can be understood as an abstraction of the software system that allows for reasoning about system properties. As such, it needs to be able to describe the system to everyone involved in the software development life cycle. By providing reasoning abilities to the architecture, it can become intelligent enough to be able to draw conclusions about itself, thus making it a Digital Twin of a real-life implementation. This paper presents one possible solution to this problem by using Controlled Natural Language (CNL) and OWL ontologies. Xtext and Java have been used to translate CNL into OWL. A case study containing a simple software architecture described by this solution is also presented in this paper.
