Abstract

This paper discusses how DSML semantics and constraints enable proactive modeling---a form of model intelligence that foresees model transformations, automatically executes them, and prompts the modeler for assistance when necessary. This paper also shows how we integrated proactive modeling into the Generic Modeling Environment (GME). Our experience using proactive modeling shows that it can reduce modeling effort by both automatically generating required model elements, and guiding modelers to select what actions should be executed on the model.
