VPML: an approach to detect design patterns of MOF-based modeling languages

摘要: A design pattern is a recurring and well-understood fragment. In model-driven engineering methodology, detecting occurrences of patterns supports the activities model comprehension maintenance. With recent explosion domain-specific modeling languages, each with its own syntax semantics, there has been corresponding in approaches to that are so much tailored those many languages they difficult reuse. This makes developing generic analysis tools extremely hard. Such tool however desirable reduce learning curve for designers as specify different used aspects system. this paper, we propose unified approach MOF-based languages. MOF increasingly define including UML BPMN. our approach, modeled Visual Pattern Modeling Language mapped QVT-Relations transformation. transformation runs over an input where be detected reports result model. The prototyped on Eclipse validated two large case studies involve patterns--specifically subset GoF Control Flow BPMN Results show adequate complex their high accuracy performance.
