Formal Semantics for a UML Fragment Using UML/OCL Metamodeling

Overview This paper studies the definition of formal semantics for a fragment of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) that covers some static and dynamic UML concepts. The idea of the considered methodological approach is based on the formalization of an information system in order to use this model as a semantic reference structure. Metamodels for abstract syntax and a set of constraints for static semantics of metaclasses are provided for this fragment.

Virtualisation: Architectual Considerations and other Evaluation Criteria

In the past several years, server virtualisation technology has moved quickly and firmly into the IT mainstream. Of the many approaches to system virtualisation available in the market today, VMware's hypervisor architecture has gained the greatest market acceptance. This paper examines the architectural issues, solution support, and enterprise readiness required when deploying such a virtualisation solution.
