Coping with evolution in automated production systems implies a cross-disciplinary
challenge along the system's life-cycle for variant-rich systems of high complexity. The …

When dealing with complex systems, information is very often fragmented across many
different models expressed within a variety of (modeling) languages. To provide the relevant …

During the development of large software-intensive systems, developers use several
modeling languages and tools to describe a system from different viewpoints. Model-driven …

Modeling complex systems involves dealing with several heterogeneous and interrelated
models defined using a variety of languages (UML, ER, BPMN, DSLs, etc.). These models …

Model-Driven Engineering provides an abstract representation of systems through the use of
models and views. For complex systems, however, finding a single model and a single view …

Fragmentation of information across instances of different metamodels poses a significant
problem for software developers and leads to a major increase in effort of transformation …

While developers and users of modern software systems usually only need to interact with a
specific part of the system at a time, they are hindered by the ever-increasing complexity of …

Abstract Model management is a central activity in Software Engineering. The most
challenging aspect of model management is to keep inter-related models consistent with …

Model-driven development processes suffer from growing complexity, which leads to
information spread across heterogeneous metamodels as well as drift and erosion between …

Multi-view environments provide different views of software systems optimized for different
stakeholders. One way of ensuring consistency of overlapping and inter-dependent …
