Declarative Transformation for Object-Oriented Models
نویسندگان
چکیده
This chapter provides a context and motivation for a language to describe transformations of models within an object-oriented framework. The requirements for such a language are given, and then an object-oriented model of the language’s abstract syntax is provided that meets these requirements. A concrete syntax is introduced along with some example transformations. Finally we discuss the tools required to use the language within a model-driven software engineering paradigm. The authors aim to demonstrate the principles of model transformation within an object-oriented framework, and show how this can be applied to the development of software systems.

Declarative Semantics in Object-Oriented Software Development - A Taxonomy and Survey
One of the modern paradigms to develop an application is object oriented analysis and design. In this paradigm, there are several objects and each object plays some specific roles in applications. In an application, we must distinguish between procedural semantics and declarative semantics for their implementation in a specific programming language. For the procedural semantics, we can write a ...
متن کاملEvaluating Maintainability with Code Metrics for Model-to-Model Transformations
Using model-to-model transformations to generate analysis models or code from architecture models is sought to promote compliance and reuse of components. The maintainability of transformations is influenced by various characteristics as with every programming language artifact. Code metrics are often used to estimate code maintainability. However, most of the established metrics do not apply t...
متن کاملOntology-Oriented Programming: Static Typing for the Inconsistent Programmer
Ontologies and object-oriented data models differ little in their declarative characterization of a domain. Differences in the application of these models, however, has led to quite different characteristics of the programming languages used to create and manipulate them – notably in the presence or lack of static typing. Some ontology-reliant applications need to work with models that are inco...

متن کاملModeling and Evaluation of Stochastic Discrete-Event Systems with RayLang Formalism
In recent years, formal methods have been used as an important tool for performance evaluation and verification of a wide range of systems. In the view points of engineers and practitioners, however, there are still some major difficulties in using formal methods. In this paper, we introduce a new formal modeling language to fill the gaps between object-oriented programming languages (OOPLs) us...
