- About:
Gerti Kappel is full professor at the Institute of Information Systems Engineering at TU Wien, chairing the Business Informatics Group. Prior to that, from 1993 to 2001, she was a full professor of computer science (database systems) and head of the Department of Information Systems at the Johannes Kepler University Linz.
From 2016 to 2019, she was a member of the dean’s team of the Faculty of Informatics responsible for research, diversity, and financial affairs. Since the beginning of 2020 she acts as the dean of the Faculty of Informatics at TU Wien.
Her current research interests include Model Engineering, Web Engineering, and Process Engineering, with a special emphasis on cyber-physical production systems. Striving for the unity of research and teaching, she co-authored and co-edited among others „UML@Work“ (dpunkt.verlag, 3rd ed, 2005), „UML@Classroom“ (Springer, 2015), and „Web Engineering“ (Wiley, 2006).

JUMP-From Java Annotations to UML Profiles
Alexander BergmayrMichael GrossniklausManuel WimmerKeywords:
Astract: The capability of UML profiles to serve as annotation mechanism has been recognized in both industry and research. Today's modeling tools offer profiles specific to platforms, such as Java, as they facilitate model-based engineering approaches. However, at the modeling level, the set of available profiles is considerably smaller compared to the number of existing Java libraries using annotations at the programming level. This is because an effective mapping between Java and UML to generate profiles from annotation-based libraries is missing. In this paper, we present JUMP to overcome this limitation, thereby continuing existing mapping efforts by emphasizing on annotations and profiles. We demonstrate the practical value of JUMP by contributing profiles that facilitate reverse-engineering and forward-engineering scenarios for the Java platform. The evaluation of JUMP shows that profiles can be automatically generated from Java libraries exhibiting equal or even improved quality compared to profiles currently used in practice.

Towards a Foundational Framework for Developing and Testing Inter-organizational Business Processes
Philip LangerStefan SobernigGustaf NeumannAnne BaumgraßNico HerzbergJan MendlingAndreas MeyerStefanie Rinderle-MaKeywords:
Astract: Modeling and analyzing inter-organizational business processes (IOPs) is complicated substantially by heterogeneous process-modeling languages (e.g., surface vs. analysis languages) as well as by their inherent properties of loose coupling and local control (views). On top, multiple concerns must be addressed when modeling and analyzing IOPs, such as process data, behavior, distribution, and resource management. Whereas significant advances have been accomplished by the research community to model and analyze IOPs within the boundaries of a subset of these concerns, a holistic approach that enables a unified view across the strongly intermingled IOP concerns is missing. We believe that more research effort is needed towards establishing such a holistic, unified view based on a common language-oriented foundation for modeling and analyzing IOPs. This paper lays out one direction of language engineering towards this goal, collects generic and specific requirements on a language framework for inter-organizational business processes, and discusses them tentatively.

Bridging Java Annotations and UML Profiles with JUMP
Alexander BergmayrMichael GrossniklausManuel WimmerKeywords:
Astract: UML profiles support annotations at the modeling level. However, current modeling tools lack the capabilities to generate such annotations required for the programming level, which is desirable for reverse engineering and forward engineering scenarios. To overcome this shortcoming, we defined an effective conceptual mapping between Java annotations and UML profiles as a basis for implementing the JUMP tool. It automates the generation of profiles from annotation-based libraries and their application to generate profiled UML models. In this demonstration, we (i) compare our mapping with the different representational capabilities of current UML modeling tools, (ii) apply our tool to a model-based software modernization scenario, and (iii) evaluate its scalability with real-world libraries and applications.
