Captures domain knowledge (as opposed to code)– Uses domain abstractions – Applies domain concepts and rules as modeling

constructs– Narrow down the design space– Focus on single range of products

Lets developers design products using domain terms Apply familiar terminology Solve the RIGHT problems! Solve problems only ONCE!

How to implement DSM


About submissions

DSM’03 emphasizes on model integration Papers divided into three groups

1. DSM practice: Approaches for implementing DSMs2. Model management: Approaches for model

integration and transformation3. Tools for implementing and using DSMs


Paper presentations

1. DSM practice: – A Visual Architecture Description Language for Embedded

Systems with Hierarchical Typed Hypergraphs, Lars Grunske

2. Model management:– Diagram Definition Facilities Based on Metamodel

Mappings, Edgars Celms, Audris Kalnins, Lelde Lace

3. Tools:– UDM: An Infrastructure for Implementing Domain-Specific

Modeling Languages, Endre Magyari, Arpad Bakay, Andras Lang, Tamas Paka, Attila Vizhanyo, Aditya Agarwal, Gabor Karsai


Working groups

Focus on a specific topic Four parallel groups

1. DSM practice2. Model management3. Tools4. DSM in the context of MDA

The goal of those groups is to – establish theoretical background– summarise past experience– investigate most interesting approaches– identify future research topics

Groups present their results for discussion


Publishing results
