“…If a model is highly abstract or significantly different from a source text, model extraction typically requires a model-to-model (M2M) transformation to be combined with a text-to-model (T2M) transformation [8] [13]. This is undesirable when designing a model extraction tool to be extensible, because the M2M transformation is an additional code block to modify.…”

“…DBLModeller has been compared to Gra2MoL's PLSQL2KDM example [3] as this had the highest level of SQL support at the time of writing. We extracted KDM models from the database schemas of four systems: Apache OFBiz, MediaWiki, Science Warehouse, and a student record system [8]. With OFBiz and MediaWiki we obtained Oracle and MySQL versions of the schema by installing them on both databases.…”

“…We have overcome this in a number of ways: (1) our approach incorporates existing tools from database providers, (2) a single grammar has been developed to support multiple SQL dialects, and (3) a model-to-model transformation has been removed from the model extraction process required to produce KDM and SMM models. These changes increased the range of enterprise systems supported by DBLModeller and improved extensibility compared to the state-of-the-art Gra2MoL SQL-to-KDM tool [8].…”

Abstract. Enterprise software systems are prevalent in many organisations, typically they are data-intensive and manage customer, sales, or other important data. When an enterprise system needs to be modernised or migrated (e.g. to the cloud) it is necessary to understand the structure of this data and how it is used. We have developed a toolsupported approach to model database structure, query patterns, and growth patterns. Compared to existing work, our tool offers increased system support and extensibility which is vital for use in industry. Standardisation and platform independence is ensured by producing models conforming to the Knowledge Discovery Metamodel and Software Metrics Metamodel.

ProMeTA: a taxonomy for program metamodels in program reverse engineering

2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

To support program comprehension, maintenance, and evolution, metamodels are frequently used during program reverse engineering activities to describe and analyze constituents of a program and their relations. Reverse engineering tools often define their own metamodels according to the intended purposes and features. Although each metamodel has its own advantages, its limitations may be addressed by other metamodels. Existing works have evaluated and compared metamodels and tools, but none have considered all the possible characteristics and limitations to provide a comprehensive guideline for classifying, comparing, reusing, and extending program metamodels. To aid practitioners and researchers in classifying, comparing, reusing, and extending program metamodels and their corresponding reverse engineering tools according to the intended goals, we establish a conceptual framework with definitions of program metamodels and related concepts. We confirmed that any reverse engineering activity can be clearly described as a pattern based on the framework from the viewpoint of program metamodels. Then the framework is used (2018) 23:2323-2358 to provide a comprehensive taxonomy, named Program Metamodel TAxonomy (ProMeTA), which incorporates newly identified characteristics into those stated in previous works, which were identified via a systematic literature review (SLR) on program metamodels, while keeping the orthogonality of the entire taxonomy. Additionally, we validate the taxonomy in terms of its orthogonality and usefulness through the classification of popular metamodels.Empir Software Eng

“…In order to assess to what extent our approach is flexible enough to adapt metamodels not foreseen by the generic transformation developer we have applied the template for two different source meta-models of procedural languages, namely NQC (Not Quite C) and PL/SQL. These meta-models were defined by fellow researchers for projects independent from us [CM10,vAvdBE10].…”

Model transformation is one of the core techniques in ModelDriven Engineering. Many transformation languages exist nowadays, but few offer mechanisms directed to the reuse of whole transformations or transformation fragments in different contexts.Taking inspiration from generic programming, in this paper we define model transformation templates. These templates are not defined over concrete meta-models, but on so-called meta-model concepts which later can be bound to specific meta-models. The binding mechanism is flexible as it permits mapping concepts and meta-models with certain kinds of structural heterogeneities. The approach is general and can be applied to any model transformation language. In this paper we report on its application to ATL.
