ABSTRACT

This paper proposes a mathematical model to verify a reverse engineering approach which converts a form fill format document into a UML class diagram. The proposed approach used to convert a form fill format document into a UML class diagram consists of the following phases. The first phase is the capturing process that scans the form document and identifies the form components into tables; the second step is the normalization process that normalizes the tables in the first phase. The third phase is the mapping process to construct and build the relationship diagram. Finally, the translation process is conducted to construct and build the class diagrams. To verify the correctness of algorithms Interpreted Perti Nets Models will be generated to implement the proposed transformation processes (i.e. Capturing, normalization, mapping, and translation process). This verification is done because the importance of this approach as a helpful algorithm for researchers and practitioners in the Software Engineering field, since most of the reverse engineering approaches are based on source code. This approach is tested by using several word form fill format documents and shows a significant result.

ABSTRACT: Problem statement: Building UML diagrams is a very important and time consuming task for both requirements and design phases. However, some of these diagrams, such as use-case and class diagrams can be considered as a transition between the two phases. Approach: Through this study, the event table will be used to derive the use-case and class diagrams. Results: A new CASE tool to automate the proposed approach will be introduced, that is, the UML diagrams generator (UMLdg). Conclusion: It is clearly noted that the proposed CASE tool (UMLdg) gives an ideal and reasonable methodology to construct the intended use-case and class diagrams from any comprehensive event table. Furthermore, this tool will save the time for the building process of such diagrams.

ABSTRACT: This paper proposes a multi function solution, based on GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) networks [1] for control of a motor driving circuit and LCD (Liquid Crystal Display). This system provides ideal solution for controlling the direction of motor driving within a specified range of time, two directions where controlled in addition to activated functionality with 5V. In this system, a real time data can be accessed world wide using the GSM network. The system can also be configured to control an alarm or any other electrical device via a mobile phone using SMS text messaging. The proposed system controls the motor direction from the remote location, determines the time duration the motor is in a specified direction and whenever it crosses the Cellular Shield to the SM5100B Module. The Cellular Shield will send the signal to the output PIN’s which are programmed using C language to control the motor operation. The concerned authority can control the system through his mobile phone by sending AT Commands to GSM MODEM and in turn to microcontroller. The system uses GSM technology [2] thus providing the access to the system for security and automated monitoring and control the motor operations.

ABSTRACT: Bluetooth technology is offering a very robust way to transfer data in faster rates within a short range wireless communication local network. Wireless and radio communication technologies are giving organizations and users many benefits such as portability and flexibility, increased productivity, and lower the installation costs. Register the attendance and absence for students in the classroom of all educational institutions is one of the most intensive daily operations. In this paper, we are interesting to use the free wireless communication via Bluetooth technology that is available in most mobile phones and computer systems to build a computerized wireless clients-server network system. The client side will be a mobile phone that used to fill the list of attendance and absence for students in a classroom of educational institutions in an easy and fast way. Server side will contain the centralized database and monitoring attendance system for the distributing clients connected to the system. The idea of this system is developed and implemented on real educational institution. The recorded results show that the system saves a costs and efforts and helps the educational institution to get a more effective system than the old one.

ABSTRACT: The graphical user interfaces of software programs are used by researchers in the soft-ware engineering field to measure functionality, usability, durability, accessibility, and performance. This paper describes a reverse engineering approach to transform the captured images of the distributed GUI’s into class diagram. The processed distributed GUI’s come from different and separate client computers. From the distributed GUI’s, the inter-faces are captured as images, attributes and functions are extracted and processed through pattern recognition mechanism to be stored into several temporary tables corresponding to each client’s graphical user interface. These tables will be analyzed and processed into one integrated normalized table eliminating any attribute redundancies. Further, the normalized the one integrated table is to create a class diagram.
