Modeling of objects and processes for the road information system (VSS2001/701)
Overview
Background & policy context:
The dynamic behaviour of the linear reference system is one of the particular characteristics of a road information system. Because this linear reference system can change spatially and temporally, a description method of a road information system must have the ability not only to define the static structure but also to describe the dynamic behaviour of the objects of a road. The object oriented
method offers this ability to model the structural and behavioural aspects in a combined and integrated way. The research needs are to define conventions allowing an object oriented modelling of a road information system.
Objectives:
The main goal of this research is to analyse process normalization methods and to apply these to the main management processes of the road information system.
The project furnishes the following elements:
- Description management processes for the information system
- Analysis of object oriented approaches and their representation types (notation)
- Choice of a method and a notation
- Feasibility study by applying the method and notation to some examples of processes
- Analysis of the results relative to the VSS normalisation and relative to the communication needed for the evolution of the information system
