CIM to PIM Transformation: A Reality
Eduardo Fernández-Medina Patón, Mario Piattini Velthuis
Within the scope of MDA, the model transformation is orientated towards solving the problems of time, cost and quality associated with software creation. Moreover, business process modeling, through the use of industrial standards such as UML or BPMN, offers us a good opportunity to incorporate requirements at high levels of abstraction. We consider Secure Business Process models such as the Computation Independent Model (CIM). In this paper we show that it is possible to define CIM to PIM (Platform Independent Model) transformations, using QVT rules. Through our rules, we obtain certain UML analysis-level classes and use cases which will be part of the PIM of an information system. We illustrate our approach with a case study concerned with payment for the consumption of electrical energy.
