“…Thus, we believe that an ideal Fog modeling language should allow different representations or abstractions of a same concept to co-exist in the same model, but should also provide means to relate these representations and abstractions (at least to a certain extent). To this end, latest advances in the recently coined area of Blended Modeling [48,49], as advocating for a better support for multiple notations over single models, could be studied in the future.…”

“…For instance, Maro et al (2015) provide a solution for the semi-automatic generation of textual editors from UML profile-based DSMLs and the implementation of synchronization mechanisms with the existing graphical editor; however, the developed transformations are specific to the considered UML profile. Addazi and Ciccozzi (2021) propose a blended modeling framework, but the solution is specific to UML-based DSMLs. Lazȃr (2011) develops a textual editor for the Action Language for Foundational UML (Alf), but the editing capabilities are restricted only to some parts of a UML model, thus they do not cover the complete model.…”

IntroductionBlended modeling aims at boosting the development of complex multi-domain systems by enabling seamless multi-notation modeling. The synchronization mechanisms between notations are embodied in model transformations. Manually defining model transformations requires specific knowledge of transformation languages, and it is a time-consuming and error-prone task. Moreover, whenever any of the synchronized languages or notations evolves, those transformations become obsolete.MethodsIn this paper, we propose an automated solution for generating synchronization transformations in an industrial setting.ResultsThe approach entails i) the specification of mapping rules between two arbitrary domain-specific modeling languages leveraging a mapping modeling language, appositely defined for this purpose, and ii) the automatic generation of synchronization model transformations driven by the mapping rules.DiscussionWe validated the proposed approach in two use cases. Although our main goal was to provide a solution for synchronization between graphical and textual notations of UML-RT state machines, the proposed approach is language- and notation-agnostic.

“…Re-engineered 4th Generation Management (Hallioui et al, 2022) is a new business management style that focuses on sustainability and customers. It is intended to make businesses more modern in the context of Industry 4.0 (Smiari et al, 2020), the circular economy (Tjahjadi et al, 2023), smart cities, competitiveness, and a wide range of stakeholders (Addazi and Ciccozzi, 2021). A development of the Balanced Scorecard (BSC), the Sustainability Balanced Scorecard (SBSC) integrates sustainability objectives and performance metrics with the four traditional BSC perspectives, as well as sustainability ethical, environmental, social, and governance issues (Mamudu et al, 2023).…”

Computer technology and administrative procedures are used to provide business intelligence (BI), which aids in decision-making. In order to balance financial and non-financial factors as well as short- and long-term measurements, the balanced scorecard is a type of business intelligence tool for performance measurement and management control. The original balanced scorecard was modified to specifically take governance, social, environmental, and ethical issues into account. As a result, sustainability concepts may be incorporated into the organization's strategy and management. This is known as the sustainable balanced scorecard. Despite being one of the best instruments for incorporating sustainability into management, the sustainable balanced scorecard has few developed and implemented instances that can serve as reference models. In order to address this issue, this paper discusses the case study's findings and suggests a technique for creating a sustainable balanced scorecard that takes into account several stages including planification, analysis, design, or the use of computer tools. As a result, the research methodology used to conceptualize and carry out the case study was split into seven stages: defining the objectives and questions of the study; formulating a theoretical model; identifying units of analysis; choosing a case; defining research methods and resources; conducting fieldwork; gathering data; classifying and triangulating information; developing an improved theory, model, or methodology; and confirming the thoroughness and caliber of the investigation. The paper shows a methodology organized in phases and activities that allow a sustainable balanced scorecard to be planned, designed, built, computerized, and controlled to integrate sustainability within the management systems of organizations.
