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

When complex IT systems are being developed, the usage of several programming and
modelling languages can lead to inconsistencies that yield faulty designs and …

Architecture-based Performance Prediction (AbPP) allows evaluation of the performance of
systems and to answer what-if questions without measurements for all alternatives. A …

All Enterprise Architecture Modeling (EAM) approaches revolve around the use of multiple,
inter-related views to describe the properties of a system and its surrounding environment …

To develop complex software systems, source code and other artefacts, such as
architectural models and behaviour descriptions, are used. Keeping these software …

Abstract Models have evolved from mere pictures supporting human understanding and
communication to sophisticated knowledge structures processable by machines and …

Applying model-based performance prediction requires that an up-to-date Performance
Model (PM) is available throughout the development process. Creating such a model …

When models of a system change, analyses based on them have to be reevaluated in order
for the results to stay meaningful. In many cases, the time to get updated analysis results is …

A software system under development can be described by several models, which represent
di erent concerns or abstractions of the system. These models can contain dependent or …

Enterprise modeling deals with the increasing complexity of processes and systems by
operationalizing model content and by linking complementary models and languages, thus …
