METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ENABLING REPRESENTATION OF UML CLASS DIAGRAM IN A LISP FORMAT AND DESIGN PATTERN

摘要

Method and a system for enabling representation of UML Class diagram in Lisp format and design pattern detection using such representation. A method for enabling representation of UML Class diagram in a Lisp format and for design pattern detection in UML Class diagram comprising the steps of parsing XMI file describing a UML class diagram in XML framework; storing metadata described in the XMI file into a platform-independent format; converting such metadata into Lisp representation; developing Lisp rules to detect design patterns; firing the said design pattern detection rules on the Lisp representation of UM1, class diagram; and identifying the design pattern.
