This document discusses operation contracts in the Unified Process. Operation contracts describe detailed system behavior in terms of state changes to objects in the domain model after a system operation executes. Contracts may be defined for system operations identified in system sequence diagrams. A contract includes the operation name and parameters, cross references, preconditions, and postconditions describing changes to objects in the domain model. Contracts are optional and only used to add detail for complex system operations not fully described in use cases.

Secret Twists to Efficiently Develop Reactive Software SystemsBart Jonkers
A successful software design for reactive software systems follows the three design principles:
■ Divide and conquer, then reuse effectively
■ Visualize your system
■ Automatically and formally verify everything, always
These principles are easy in theory. With traditional programming, however, it is extremely challenging to master them.
Reactive blocks, on the other hand, are a new type of software modules that make the three design principles a natural part of the design process.I
n this whitepaper, we present the secret twists to make these principles work for you and your organization.

Paketo Buildpacks : la meilleure façon de construire des images OCI? DevopsDa...Anthony Dahanne
Les Buildpacks existent depuis plus de 10 ans ! D’abord, ils étaient utilisés pour détecter et construire une application avant de la déployer sur certains PaaS. Ensuite, nous avons pu créer des images Docker (OCI) avec leur dernière génération, les Cloud Native Buildpacks (CNCF en incubation). Sont-ils une bonne alternative au Dockerfile ? Que sont les buildpacks Paketo ? Quelles communautés les soutiennent et comment ?

Understanding Globus Data Transfers with NetSageGlobus
NetSage is an open privacy-aware network measurement, analysis, and visualization service designed to help end-users visualize and reason about large data transfers. NetSage traditionally has used a combination of passive measurements, including SNMP and flow data, as well as active measurements, mainly perfSONAR, to provide longitudinal network performance data visualization. It has been deployed by dozens of networks world wide, and is supported domestically by the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC), NSF #2328479. We have recently expanded the NetSage data sources to include logs for Globus data transfers, following the same privacy-preserving approach as for Flow data. Using the logs for the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) as an example, this talk will walk through several different example use cases that NetSage can answer, including: Who is using Globus to share data with my institution, and what kind of performance are they able to achieve? How many transfers has Globus supported for us? Which sites are we sharing the most data with, and how is that changing over time? How is my site using Globus to move data internally, and what kind of performance do we see for those transfers? What percentage of data transfers at my institution used Globus, and how did the overall data transfer performance compare to the Globus users?

Glossary
See Figure 11.1 in text book for more detail
4. Why Contracts
Use cases are the primary mechanism in
the UP to describe system behavior, and
are usually sufficient.
However, sometimes a more detailed
description of system behavior has value.
Contracts for operations can help define
system behavior.
4
5. Domain Model And Contracts
A Domain Model is a visual
representation of conceptual classes or
real-world objects in a domain of interest.
Contracts describe detailed system
behavior in terms of state changes to
objects in the Domain Model, after a
system operation has executed.
5
6. Keep it Agile
In many, or even most software
development projects, operation contracts
may be unnecessary. For an agile
process, use them only when necessary to
add additional detail and understanding.
6
7. System Operations and
the System Interface
Contracts may be defined for system
operations – operations that the system as a
black box offers in its public interface to handle
incoming system events. System operations can
be identified by discovering these system
events.
The entire set of system operations, across all
use cases, defines the public system interface,
viewing the system as a single component or
class.
7
8. Example Contract:
enterItem
Operation: enterItem(itemID : ItemID,
quantity : integer)
Cross References: Use Cases: Process Sale
Preconditions: There is a Sale Underway.
Postconditions: -A SalesLineItem instance sli was
created (instance creation)
-sli was associated with the
current Sale (association formed)
-sli.quantity became quantity
(attribute modification)
-sli was associated with a
ProductSpecification, based on
itemID match (association formed)
8
Contract CO2: enterItem
9. Contract Sections
Operation: Name Of operation, and parameters.
Cross References: (optional) Use cases this
can occur within.
Preconditions: Noteworthy assumptions about the
state of the system or objects in
the Domain Model before execution
of the operation.
Postconditions: -The state of objects in the
Domain Model after completion of
the operation.
9
10. Postconditions
The postconditions describe changes in the
state of objects in the Domain Model. Domain
Model state changes include instances created,
associations formed or broken, and attributes
changed.
Postconditions are not actions to be performed,
during the operation; rather, they are
declarations about the Domain Model objects
that are true when the operation has finished.
10
11. The Spirit of Postconditions: The
Stage and Curtain
Express postconditions in the past tense,
to emphasize they are declarations about
a state change in the past.
(better) A SalesLineItem was created.
(worse) Create a SalesLineItem.
11
12. The Spirit of Postconditions: The
Stage and Curtain
Think about postconditions using the following image:
The system and it’s objects are presented on a theatre
stage.
Before the operation, take a picture of the stage.
Close the curtains on the stage, and apply the
system operation
Open the curtains and take a second picture.
Compare the before and after pictures, and
express as postconditions the changes in the
state of the stage (A SalesLineItem was
created…).
12
13. Writing Contracts Leads to
Domain Model Updates
New conceptual classes, attributes, or
associations in the Domain Model are
often discovered during contract writing.
Enhance the Domain Model as you make
new discoveries while thinking through the
operation contracts.
13
14. Contracts vs. Use Cases
The use cases are the main repository of
requirements for the project. They may
provide most or all of the detail necessary
to know what to do in the design.
If the details and complexity of required
state changes are awkward to capture in
use cases, then write operation contracts.
14
15. Contracts vs. Use Cases contd…
If developers can understand what to do based on the
use cases and ongoing (verbal) collaboration with a
subject matter expert, avoid writing contracts.
Operation contracts are uncommon. If a team is making
contracts for every system operation:
the use cases are poorly done, or
there is not enough collaboration or access to a
subject matter expert, or
the team is doing too much unnecessary
documentation.
15
16. Guidelines: Contracts
To make contracts:
Identify system operations from the SSDs.
For system operations that are complex and
perhaps subtle in their own results, or which are
not clear in the use case, construct a contract.
To describe the postconditions, use:
- instance creation and deletion
- attribute modification
- associations formed and broken
16
17. Operation Contracts
Within the UP
Phases
Inception – Contracts are not needed
during inception – they are too detailed.
Elaboration – If used at all, most contracts
will be written during elaboration, when
most use cases are written. Only write
contracts for the most complex and subtle
system operations.
