Motivation
In complex system development, models from different perspectives often follow heterogeneous metamodels, such as UML, SysML, or domain-specific languages. Integrating these models into a coherent Virtual Single Underlying Metamodel (V-SUMM) is challenging due to structural and semantic differences between metamodels. Systematically remodeling heterogeneous metamodels, through refactoring, abstraction, or normalization, can enhance their compatibility, reduce integration complexity, and pave the way for automated consistency management. This thesis is motivated by the need to systematically remodel heterogeneous metamodels so they can be aligned and integrated into a coherent V-SUMM.
Tasks
The student will analyze two or more heterogeneous metamodels and identify elements that require remodeling to enable seamless integration into a V-SUMM. The work includes defining systematic remodeling operations, implementing prototype transformations or adaptations, and establishing correspondences between remodeled metamodel elements. The student will develop a small proof-of-concept (PoC) or a set of transformation scripts to demonstrate the application of the proposed remodeling methodology. Finally, the student will document the approach, evaluate its effectiveness using the chosen example metamodels.
Benefits
- Gain hands-on experience with modeling tools and a clear understanding of how different modeling languages work together.
- Learn practical and highly relevant skills in metamodeling, model analysis, and multi-view integration.
- Opportunity to contribute to active research at KIT.
