Using a Formal Language Constructs for Software Model Evolution
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this paper we present an automated support for software model evolution using a formal language constructs. For this, we extended Object Constraint Language (OCL) with actions to define a new language - CAL (Constraint with Action Language), which gives users the ability to evaluate objects change a-priori. We have added a data type, directed acyclic graph (DAG) to CAL to automate model evolution. DAG has been annotated (ADAG) with dependency weights based on an improved graph labeling scheme. Rules are designed to translate a UML model into CAL data structure (ADAG). CAL contains a small set of constructs, but is powerful enough to be used efficiently for typical software evolution management operations like impact analysis, correction, improvement and enhancement of models. A prototype tool VCAL (visual CAL), for dependency analysis of UML Class Diagrams is presented.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
