Abstract

The maturity of Model Driven Engineering facilitates the development of domain specific languages. Their creation relies on the definition of metamodels, but also on their corresponding visual notations. One can wonder about the quality of any new language, which can result in inunderstandable diagrams with inappropriate notations. Then our goal is to provide indicators about the quality of notations thanks to metrics. In this paper, we present functions that are necesary to calculate these metrics in a metamodeling environment. Then we introduce how metrics are integrated in a modeling environment named ModX.
