ArDoCo Core

The goal of this project is to connect architecture documentation and models while identifying missing or deviating elements (inconsistencies). An element can be any representable item of the model, like a component or a relation. To do so, we first create trace links and then make use of them and other information to identify inconsistencies.

ArDoCo is actively developed by researchers of the Modelling for Continuous Software Engineering (MCSE) group of KASTEL - Institute of Information Security and Dependability at the KIT.

Documentation

For more information about the setup or the architecture have a look on the Wiki. The docs are at some points deprecated, the general overview and setup should still hold. You can find the generated JavaDocs at ArDoCo.github.io/Core-Docs.
