Abstract

Interaction and state based modeling are two complementary approaches of behavior modeling. The former focuses on global interactions between system components. The latter concentrates on the internal states of individual components. Both approaches have been proven useful in practice. One challenging research objective is to combine the modeling power of both for the validation of the system behavior. Initially, the system is described by a set of scenarios which represent partial views. The synthesis process must produce a specification that includes all desired behaviors, with respect to static and temporal aspects. We present the way to combine interaction and state based modeling, namely, UML Sequence Diagrams and Discrete EVent Specification, in order to validate the global system specification using simulation techniques and formal methods.
