This technical report introduces the Descartes Modeling Language (DML), a new architecture-level modeling language for modeling Quality-of-Service (QoS) and resource management related aspects of modern dynamic IT systems, infrastructures and services. DML is designed to serve as a basis for self-aware resource management during operation ensuring that system QoS requirements are continuously satisfied while infrastructure resources are utilized as efficiently as possible.
This thesis deals with the management and analysis of source code, which is represented in XML. Using the elementary methods of the XML repository, the XML source code representation is accessed, changed, updated, and saved. We reason about the source code, refactor source code and we visualize dependency graphs for call analysis. The visualized dependencies between files, modules, or packages are used to structure the source code in order to get a system, which is easily to comprehend, to modify and to complete. Sophisticated methods have been developed to slice the source code in order to obtain a working package of a large system, containing only a specific functionality. The basic methods, on which the visualizations and analyses are built on can be changed like changing a plug-in. The visualization methods can be reused in order to handle arbitrary source code representations, e.g., JAML, PHPML, PROLOGML. Dependencies of other context can be visualized, too, e.g., ER diagrams, or website references. The tool SCAV supports source code visualization and analyzing methods.
Innovative Software kann die Position eines Unternehmens im Wettbewerb sichern. Die Einführung innovativer Software ist aber alles andere als einfach. Denn obgleich die technischen Aspekte offensichtlicher sind, dominieren organisationale Aspekte. Zu viele Softwareprojekte schlagen fehl, da die Einführung nicht gelingt, trotz Erfüllung technischer Anforderungen. Vor diesem Hintergrund ist das Forschungsziel der Masterarbeit, Risiken und Erfolgsfaktoren für die Einführung innovativer Software in Unternehmen zu finden, eine Strategie zu formulieren und dabei die Bedeutung von Schlüsselpersonen zu bestimmen.
