Addressing the Challenges of Multi-Modeling for Domain-Specific Modeling Languages

Moderator

Doug Schmidt, Vanderbilt University, USA

Date

October 3rd, 2008

Motivation

Domain-specific modeling languages (DSMLs) are designed to provide precise abstractions of domain-specific constructs. Models for complex systems typically do not fit neatly within a single domain, however. Moreover, capturing all important aspects of such a system requires developing multiple models using different DSMLs. This panel will explore promising solutions to challenges associated with combining DSML models into multi-models, including capturing multi-model interdependencies, maintaining multi-model consistency, and achieving semantic precision of inter-model data exchange.
