Deriving Prototypes from UML 2.0 Sequence Diagrams

Executable prototypcs generatcd on early stages of software development bring many benefits, first of all they help to develop and validate systcm's spccification. The paper prcsents an approach to automatic systcm prototype generation based on a collection of UML 2.0 scquerrcediagrams. In thc approach a set of sequcnce diagrams rcpresenting behavior of a specified systenr is transforrned into a state machirre and next a Java code is generated for the state machine. Thc trarrsformatiorm arc described inforrnally by presentation of simplc examples. Architecture of the system implementing the transformation is briefly describcd.
