The role of information systems (IS) as representations of real-world systems is changing in
an increasingly digitalized world, suggesting that conceptual modeling is losing its …

Model transformation programs are iteratively refined, restructured, and evolved due to
many reasons such as fixing bugs and adapting existing transformation rules to new …

Abstract Model transformation design patterns have been proposed by a number of
researchers, but their usage appears to be sporadic and sometimes patterns are applied …

Software models at different levels of abstraction and from different perspectives contribute
to the creation of compilable code in the implementation phase of the SDLC. Traditionally …

Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) promotes the use of models to conduct all phases of
software development in an automated way. Models are frequently defined using Domain …

The increasing popularity of model-based and low-code platforms has raised the need to
understand large models–especially in industrial settings. However, current approaches …

Abstract Model-driven engineering (MDE) has proved to be a useful approach to cope with
today's ever-growing complexity in the development of software systems; nevertheless, it is …

Abstract Model transformations are essential elements of model-driven engineering (MDE)
solutions, as they enable the automatic manipulation of models. MDE promotes the creation …

Abstract Model transformations are an important cornerstone of model‐driven engineering, a
discipline which facilitates the abstraction of relevant information of a system as models. The …

Model-driven engineering (MDE) promotes models as the principal assets in software
projects. Models are built using a modelling language whose syntax is defined by a …
