Abstract Context Model Driven Engineering (MDE) aims to alleviate complexity and improve
reusability in software development. The development of complex software implies to divide …

Abstract Model merging conflicts occur when different stakeholders aim to integrate their
contradicting changes that are applied concurrently to update software models. We conduct …

In software product line engineering, feature composition generates software tailored to
specific requirements from a common set of artifacts. Superimposition is a technique to …

Due to the increased complexity of software development projects more and more systems
are described by models. The sheer size makes it impractical to describe these systems by a …

Abstract Model-driven development is a field within software engineering in which software
artifacts are represented as models in order to improve productivity, quality, and cost …

Inadequate version control for models significantly impedes the application of model-driven
software development. In particular, sophisticated support for merging model versions is …

Goal-oriented requirements engineering aims to describe both stakeholders and system
goals and their relationships using goal models. Large goal models for complex systems are …

Model Management addresses the problem of managing an evolving collection of models
by capturing the relationships between models and providing well-defined operators to …

Inadequate version control for models significantly impedes the application of model-driven
software development. In particular, sophisticated support for merging model versions is …

Employing rules for the automatic extraction of conceptual diagrams from software
requirements has been in practice for some time. However, considering only rules for …
