    An Intelligent Fuzzy Object-Oriented Database Framework for Video Database Applications
    (Elsevier, 2009) Ozgur, Nezihe Burcu; Koyuncu, Murat; Yazici, Adnan
    Video database applications call for flexible and powerful modeling and querying facilities, which require an integration or interaction between database and knowledge-based technologies. It is also necessary for many real life video database applications to incorporate uncertainty, which naturally occurs due to the complex and subjective semantic content of video data. In this study, firstly, we introduce a fuzzy conceptual data model to represent the semantic content of video data. For that purpose, UML (unified modeling language) is utilized and extended to represent uncertain information along with video specific properties. Secondly, we present an intelligent fuzzy object-oriented database framework for video database applications. The introduced fuzzy conceptual model is used in this framework, which provides modeling of complex and rich semantic content and knowledge of video data including uncertainty. Moreover, it supports various flexible queries including (fuzzy) semantic, temporal and (fuzzy) spatial queries, based on the video data model. We think that the presented conceptual data model and the framework can be used for any video database application. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Use Cases and Object Modelling Using Argouml
    (Springer-verlag Berlin, 2011) Complak, Wojciech; Wojciechowski, Adam; Mishra, Alok; Mishra, Deepti
    The key factor in the process of good quality software development is using proper techniques for requirements elicitation, representation and modelling providing foundations to build a logical model of the projected system. One of the most popular functional requirements description methods is use cases and scenarios approach introduced by Jacobson in 1993. Use case diagrams and analysis of functionality necessary for future users of the system allows precise definition of object model of target software system. However there are few fully functional free CASE tools supporting system designer at this software development stage. The article describes process of creating guidelines and formal requirements for design of a software system supporting storage and analysis of data concerning regulatory duties of Polish Telecom (Polish name: Telekomunikacja Polska) in the range of RIO framework agreement regarding collocation with the free UML modelling ArgoUML tool.

    PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF UML ACTIVITY DIAGRAMS FOR THE GENERATION OF TEST CASES
    (Editura Acad Romane, 2012) Fernandez-Sanz, Luis; Misra, Sanjay
    Software testing and debugging represents around one third of total effort in development projects. Different factors which have influence on poor practices of testing have been identified through specific surveys. Amongst several, one of the most important is the lack of efficient methods to exploit development models for generating test cases. This paper presents a new method for automatically generating a complete set of functional test cases from UML activity diagrams complementing specification of use cases. Test cases are prioritized according to software risk information. Results from experiences with more than 70 software professionals/experts validate benefits of the method. Participants also confirm its interest and effectiveness for testing needs of industry.
