Abstract

Nowadays, in the world of industry end-users of business rules inside huge or small companies claims that it's so hard to understand the rules either because they are hand written by a specific structural or procedural languages used only inside their organizations or because they require a certain understanding of the back-end process. As a result, a high need for a better management system that is easy to use, easy to maintain during the evolution process has increased. In this paper, the emphasis is put on building a business rule management system (BRMS) as a graphical editor for editing the models in a flexible agile manner with the assistant of ATL and Sirius frameworks within Eclipse platform. Thus, the proposed solution, on one hand, solves the problem of wasting resources dedicated for updating the rules and on the other hand it guarantees a great visibility and reusability of the rules.

Abstract

The current technology tend leads us to recognize the need for adaptive guidance process for all process of software development. The new needs generated by the mobility context for software development led these guidance processes to be adapted. In order to improve the performance of the deployed software development, it is useful to manage the configuration of its evolving aspects. This paper deals with the configuration management of guidance process or its ability to be adapted to specific development contexts. The proposed adaptive configuration Meta-model is worked out on the basis of a Y description for adaptive guidance process. This description focuses on three dimensions defined by the material/software platform, the adaptation form and provided guidance service. Each dimension considers several factors to develop a coherent configuration strategy and provide automatically the appropriate guidance process to a current development context.

Keywords

Guidance Process, Configuration Process, Adaptive Meta-Model, Development Context.
