Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method, system and apparatus for the model-to-model transformation by element-kind of a source model are proposed. An element-kind model-to-model transformation can include one or more transform elements defining a traversal of a source model, an element-kind mapping and the conversion from source models to target models. The element-kind mapping can include a set of associations between element-kinds for the source model and corresponding transformation rules to produce target objects in a target model.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A method for performing element-kind model-to-model transformations, the method comprising the steps of: traversing a source model hierarchy of a source model having a plurality of source objects according to a single ordered list within a element-kind transform that specifies a traversal order of the plurality of source objects; identifying an element-kind for each of said source objects in the source model hierarchy, each element-kind comprising a model construct…
