Strategic transformation is a driver for business model innovation. This study identifies key aspects and activities of innovation in high-tech industry utilising strategic transformation. The takes its departure an aircraft engine manufacturer dominated by military products that evolves into developing company competing on open market. Findings support previous research changes the defence suc...

Any organization in subject of changes in the environment, or having the desire to improve, needs to change their processes, personnel and their use of resources. Changes, may they be called for by external threats or opportunities or internal strengths or weaknesses, take their departure in an organizations existing capabilities. To support change, there is thus a fundamental need to understan...

Model Transformation has become central to most software engineering activities. It refers to the process of modifying a (usually graphical) model for the purpose of analysis (by its transformation to some other domain), optimization, evolution, migration or even code generation. In this work, we show our approach to express model transformation based on graph transformation. This framework off...

Business value and coordination process perspectives need to be taken into consideration while modeling business collaborations. The need for these two models stems from the importance of separating the how from the what concerns. A business value model shows what is offered by whom to whom while a coordination process model shows how these offerings are fulfilled operationally. This case study...

In this paper, we propose a new framework of model transformation that combines graph transformation with algebraic specification. While graph transformation is well-suited to describe the transformation of visual models, one can observe that models are often composite structures with visual, graphical and diagrammatic components accompanied by all kinds of data objects like strings, sets, numb...

A taxonomy of model transformations was introduced in [18]. Among others, such a taxonomy can help developers in deciding which language, forma lism, tool or mechanism is best suited to carry out a particular model transformation activity. In this paper we apply the taxonomy to the technique of graph transformation, and we exemplify it by referring to four representative graph transformation to...

Model-Driven Engineering places models as first-class artifacts throughout the software lifecycle requiring the availability of proper transformation languages. Although numerous approaches are available, they lack convenient facilities for supporting debugging and understanding of the transformation logic. This is not least because transformation engines operate on a low level of abstraction, ...
