%A Thi Huong Dao %A Hong Anh Le %A Ninh Thuan Truong %T An approach to verifying consistency of software refactoring process %X In software development, refactoring is a process that improves the system internal structure without altering its external behavior. Applying design patterns, which is the common reusable solution of several kinds of problems, is widely adopted in refactoring. And, the combination of refactoring and design patterns has established a revolution approach in software re-engineering. It, however, raises a challenged issue that the software model may not preserve some cer- tain behavioral properties. In this paper, we propose a new approach to checking the consistency between original model and its evolution (the model after applying design pattern). To this aim, we employ Unified Modeling Language (UML) to modeling system, and Object Constraint Language (OCL) to represent the system requirement. In additional, we construct a set of consistent rule which uses to checking whether the system can preserve its behavior or not. We also illus- trate the checking approach in a case study of Adaptive Road Traffic Control System. %C Hanoi %D 2016 %L SisLab1519
