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

Abstract Model transformations are precious and effortful outcomes of Model-Driven
Engineering. As any other artifact, transformations are also subject to evolution forces. Not …

Context: Metamodels evolve over time to accommodate new features, improve existing
designs, and fix errors identified in previous releases. One of the obstacles that may limit the …

Model-driven engineering promotes an active use of models to conduct the software
development process. In this way, models are used to specify, simulate, verify, test and …

In 2008 the predecessor of this book, entitled “Software Evolution”[592] was published by
Springer, presenting the research results of a number of researchers working on different …

This paper discusses the history, current situation and future development trend of
Edutainment in China. The first part of this paper outlined history and current situation of …

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 …

Abstract Model transformation is one of the key tasks in model-driven engineering and relies
on the efficient matching and modification of graph-based data structures; its sibling graph …

Metamodels evolve even more frequently than programming languages. This evolution
process may result in a large number of instance models that are no longer conforming to …
