Abstract

Maude is an executable rewriting logic language specially well suited for the specification of object-oriented open and distributed systems. In this paper, we explore the possibility of using Maude as a formal notation for writing and reasoning about RM-ODP enterprise specifications. Maude offers a simple, natural and accurate way of modeling the enterprise viewpoint concepts, which provides interesting benefits over previous modeling approaches, allows overcoming some of their limitations, and offers good tool support.
