This mode includes a calculation-independent model ( CIM ), a platform-independent model ( PIM ), a platform-specific model (PSM) and a code level. Based on this mode, the modeling architecture of CIM level is presented. CIM here includes a global model, a process model, an information model and an organization model. The modeling elements of global model, process recta-model, information recta-model and organization meta-model are defined in detail and the relationship between them is described. The reflecting relationship between these models is established as well.展开更多

It was difficult for non-geomatics developers to implement a webmapping application. Indeed, this type of application uses geospatial data that require geomatics skills. For this reason, in order to help non-geomatics developers to set up a webmapping application, we have designed a meta-model that automatically generates a webmapping application using model-driven engineering. The created meta-model is used by non-geomatics developers to explicitly write the concrete syntax specific to the webmapping application using the xtext tool. This concrete syntax is automatically converted into source code using the xtend tool without the intervention of the non-geomatics developers.展开更多

Reverse engineering techniques play a crucial role in system modernization. This paper describes how to reverse engineering activity diagrams from object oriented code in the MDA context focusing on transformations at model and metamodel levels. A framework to reverse engineering MDA models from object oriented code that distinguishes three different abstraction levels linked to models, metamodels and formal specifications, is described. At model level, transformations are based on static and dynamic analysis. At metamodel level, transformations are specified as 0CL (Object Constraint Language) contracts between M0F (Meta Object Facility) metamodels which control the consistency of these transformations. The level of formal specification includes algebraic specifications of MOF metamodels and metamodel-based transformations. This paper analyzes a recovery process of activity diagrams from Java code by applying static and dynamic analysis and shows a formalization of this process in terms of MOF metamodels. The authors validate their approach by using Eclipse Modeling Framework, Ecore metamodels and ATL (Atlas Transformation Language).展开更多
