We discuss a method for customizing general-purpose graph rewriting systems for the task of model transformation. The portable approach is as simple as effective: It offers full static UML compliance including all diagram types for typed graph rewriting systems providing textual interfaces. We exemplify our approach by means of our implementation.
Model-driven development depends on good initial models. Creating these models by hand is a challenging task, because of complex specification documents and change requests. We propose a new internal representation based on thematic roles, especially designed for (but not limited to) requirements documents. The representation can be generated automatically out of annotated real-world specification text and can be used to generate UML models based on graph rewriting rules.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
