A Metamodeling Framework for Promoting Flexibility and Creativity Over Strict Model Conformance
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper defines FlexiMeta, a metamodeling framework intended to promote more flexibility and creativity while not compromising validation through model conformance. It advocates less coupling between models and metamodels in order to make the creation of models and user-defined metamodels possible in an arbitrary order. It comes along with a generic process structured into several phases. For each phase, a proper balance between flexibility and validation is found in order to bridge the gap between creativity and strict model conformance.

The Conformance Relation Challenge: Building Flexible Modelling Frameworks
Recent works in Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) advocate the need for more flexibility in modelling environments by relaxing the conformance relation between a model and its metamodel. Most of the current works on flexibility only focus on the creation of the concrete syntax, leaving out important considerations about the development of the abstract syntax. Different approaches to relaxing the c...
متن کاملAn Educational model of Creativity Enhancement in Design Studios Using Prior Researches
Despite a large body of research on creativity in architecture, the concept of creativity as a multi-faceted phenomenon in design studios is still challenging. The present study aims to analyze the related literature and systematically categorize them to provide a conceptual framework to enhance creativity in design studios. By using a qualitative researcher method along with Sandelowski and Ba...
متن کاملEWD : A Metamodeling Driven Customizable MultiMoC System Modeling Environment
To model complex embedded systems, one needs a modeling framework that allows expressibility and fidelity to capture multiple models of computation (MoC)s and their interaction. However, none of the available multi-MoC frameworks such as Ptolemy and SystemC extensions are as easily customizable by users, as metamodeling frameworks proposed in software engineering, such as GME (Generic Modeling ...
متن کاملA Formal Framework for Establishing Conformance between Object Models and Object-Oriented Programs
Conformance between structural models and their implementations is usually simplified in practice. This is not appropriate to accommodate the usual freedom of implementation for abstract concepts. In this paper, we propose a formal framework for defining conformance between object models and object-oriented programs. The framework is instantiated by providing syntactic mapping rules between mod...
متن کاملAn approach to the co-creation of models and metamodels in Enterprise Architecture Projects
The linguistic conformance and the ontological conformance between models and metamodels are two different aspects that are frequently mixed. This specifically occurs in the EMF framework resulting in problems such as the incapability to load and modify metamodels at runtime. In this paper we present a strategy to solve this problem by separating the ontological and the linguistic aspects of a ...
