Abstract

Metamodeling and model transformations are the key concepts in Model Driven Development (MDD) approaches as they provide a mechanism for automated development of well structured and maintainable systems. However, neither defining a metamodel nor developing a model transformation is an easy task. In this paper, we provide an overview of metamodeling and model transformations in MDD and discuss about the use of a MDD approach in Modeling and Simulation (M&S). In order to support the development of successful model transformations, we define the criteria for the evaluation of model transformations.
