| Popis: | Business process and requirement specification are crucial phases in the software development process. Yet, business and requirement modeling are often carried out separately by different languages and design teams, leading to misaligned models. The degree of misalignment grows continuously with their independent evolution. Thus, the potential of model-driven software development cannot be fully exploited. There is a considerable agreement among researchers about the integration technique roles to bridge the gap between heterogeneous models. Therefore, this approach is based on this technique to align the business world represented by BPMN and the software requirement world represented by the UML use case. We define an integrated meta-model that incorporates all BPMN and use case elements as well as new others to map traceable elements. Further, we define a new diagram that provides a means to visualize and combines their use within an integrated model. Our approach supplements CASE tools with additional information and relationships to maintain the global system consistency. To illustrate it, we implement an editor for designing the proposed diagram, and we apply it in a topical case study. |
