MAMBA Feature Overview

Owned by Andre van Hoorn
Jul 10, 2016

General Concepts

  • NamedMeasurements can be provided through MambaMeasurementProviders
  • CollectiveMambaMeasure can be used to provide various statistical functions
  • It is possible to request measures or characteristics by name
  • Only one library can be used
  • Refinements and equivalence between measures are not considered
  • Only OCL operations are supported
  • Hierarchy for characteristics is not supported
  • RescaledMeasure not supported since formula is of type string
  • BinaryMeasure supports only "divide" function
  • Relationships between measurements are not supported
  • ObservationScope is unsupported
  • Categories are not supported
  • PeriodicMeasures are currently unsupported

Core Classes

SmmModel

  • libraries: Exactly one library must be available
  • observations: Will be created by the MEE

MeasureLibrary

  • measureElements: Is used
  • categoryRelationships: unsupported

MeasureCategory

UNSUPPORTED

CategoryRelationship

UNSUPPORTED

Extensions

Attribute

IGNORED (but will also be serialized)

Annotation

IGNORED (but will also be serialized)

Measures

Characteristic

  • name: characteristics can be requested by name which means more precisely the measure whose trait is the characteristic and which is not base measure for any other measure
  • parent: unsupported

Scope

  • recognizer is supported
  • class must be of type EClass
  • breakCondition is unsupported

Measure (abstract)

  • name: measures can be requested by name
  • scope: required
  • trait: ???
  • everything else is unsupported

Operation

  • language: only OCL is supported
  • body: required
  • getParamStrings: unsupported

RecursiveMeasureRelationship

UNSUPPORTED

DimensionalMeasure

  • unit: unsupported
  • All associations are used

Ranking

all attributes are supported

Collective Measures

CollectiveMeasure

Other Measures

NamedMeasure

Can be used in the context of measurement providers

  • name: needed format: <name of measurement provider>:<name of measure>

RescaledMeasure
