Title
GUIDE: Games with UML for Interactive Design Exploration
Abstract
In this paper we present our design tool GUIDE, which allows the user to explore a design in UML interactively by playing a game. The game incorpo- rates both the design model and a specication of what it means for the design to be correct. The central idea of this approach is that the designer can increment the game during a play and gradually add more detail to it. Specication and design are rened by repeated plays of the game. The designer stops playing when design and specication are detailed enough for his purpose and t to each other. The interac- tive game approach helps to cope with incompleteness and informal denition of UML models, which make strictly formal verication techniques difcult. The de- signer may resolve these problems when they arise during a play or let the GUIDE tool determine how the play should proceed.
