Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Model Based Engineering aims to improve efficiency and effectiveness of software engineering. Success in industrial practice of MBE does not only depend on the modeling languages and constructive or analytical approaches, like code generation or model checking. It is also heavily influenced by the quality and, particularly, usability of the used tools. In this position paper, we discuss challenges experienced in applying MBE in practice both from academic as well as industrial viewpoints. Based on the research challenges, we discuss future research directions to improve the chances for the success of MBE in industrial practice.

Blended modeling in commercial and open-source model-driven software engineering tools: A systematic study
- 2023

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Blended modeling aims to improve the user experience of modeling activities by prioritizing the seamless interaction with models through multiple notations over the consistency of the models. Inconsistency tolerance, thus, becomes an important aspect in such settings. To understand the potential of current commercial and open-source modeling tools to support blended modeling, we have designed and carried out a systematic study. We identify challenges and opportunities in the tooling aspect of blended modeling. Specifically, we investigate the user-facing and implementation-related characteristics of existing modeling tools that already support multiple types of notations and map their support for other blended aspects, such as inconsistency tolerance, and elevated user experience. For the sake of completeness, we have conducted a multivocal study, encompassing an academic review, and grey literature review. We have reviewed nearly 5000 academic papers and nearly 1500 entries of grey literature. We have identified 133 candidate tools, and eventually selected 26 of them to represent the current spectrum of modeling tools.

Model-Driven Software Engineering in the open ETCS Project: Project Experiences and Lessons Learned
- 2016
-
In: Proceedings of 19th International Conference on Model-Driven Engineering Languages and Systems. - New York, NY, USA : ACM. ; , s. 238-248
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Model-driven software engineering in industrial practice has been the focus of different empirical studies and experience reports. Particularly, positive effects of model-driven software engineering have been reported in the domain of embedded and safety-critical systems. We report in this paper on the experiences of the openETCS European research project whose goal was to formalize the System Requirements Specification and to develop an open source reference implementation of the European Train Control System including open source modeling tools. Furthermore, we will discuss lessons learned, e.g., about using open source modeling toolchains in safety-critical contexts and about using the SCADE Suite for the development of the safety-critical parts.
