Abstract
Key management has a fundamental role in secure
communications. Designing and testing of key management
protocols is tricky. These protocols must work flawlessly
despite of any abuse. The main objective of this work was
to design and implement a tool that helps to specify the
protocol and makes it possible to test the protocol while
it is still under development. This tool generates
compile-ready java code from a key management protocol
model. A modelling method for these protocols, which uses
unified modeling language (UML) was also developed. The
protocol is modelled, exported as an XMI and read by the
code generator tool. The code generator generates java
code that is immediately executable with a test software
after compilation.
