Model Driven Development (MDD) approach is often used to model application data and behavior by a Platform Independent Model (PIM) and to generate Platform Specific Models (PSMs) and even the source code by model transformations. However, these transformations usually omit constraints of the binary association multiplicities, especially the source class optionality constraint. This paper is an extended version of the paper ?Transformation of Special Multiplicity Constraints - Comparison of Possible Realizations? presented at MDASD workshop at the FedCSIS 2012 conference. In this paper, we summarize the process of the transformation of a binary association from a PIM into a PSM for relational databases. We suggest several possible realizations of the source class optionality constraint to encourage the automatically transformation and discuss their advantages and disadvantages.We also provide experimental comparison of our suggested realizations to the common realization where this constraint is omitted.

Abstract-OntoUML is an ontologically well-founded conceptual modelling language that distinguishes various types of classifiers and relations providing precise meaning to the modelled entities. Efforts arise to incorporate OntoUML into the Model-Driven Development approach as a conceptual modelling language for the PIM of application data. In a prequel paper, we have introduced and outlined our approach for a transformation of OntoUML PIM into a PSM of a relational database. In this paper, we discuss the details of various variants of the transformation of Rigid Sortal types of OntoUML.
