Ralf Lämmel: Compilation of megamodels

Megamodels can be used in diverse contexts:

  • model management
  • software architecture
  • technology documentation
  • et al.

Megamodels may reside at different abstraction levels:

  • Scripting (in the scope of software repositories)
  • Modeling (in the scope of software architecture)
  • Verification (in the scope of formal specification)
  • et al.

We study the compilation of higher-level megamodels to lower-level megamodels. The domain of interest is concerned with software transformation---with bidirectional transformations specifically. The higher level is concerned with logic properties of transformations such as universal consistency properties between artifacts being transformed. The lower level is concerned with property-based testing of transformations.
