Abstract

Uncertainty is pervasive in Model-based Software Engineering. In previous work, we have proposed partial models as a way to explicate uncertainty during modeling. Using partial models, modelers can perform certain forms of reasoning, like checking properties, without the having to prematurely resolve uncertainty. In this paper, we present a strategy for encoding partial models into different reasoning formalisms and conduct an empirical study aimed to compare the effectiveness of these formalisms for checking properties of partial models.
