Abstract

This paper is part of an ongoing research effort to better understand the process of conceptual modeling As part of this effort, we are currently developing a modeling laboratory named MoDial (Modeling Dialogues) The main contribution of this paper is a conceptual meta-model of that part of MoDial which aims to capture the elicitation aspects of the modeling process used in creating a model, rather than the model as such.The current meta-model is the result of a two-stage research process The first stage involves theoretical input from literature and earlier results The second stage is concerned with (modest) empirical validation in terms of interviews with modeling experts.
