Motivation
High-level bidirectional model-to-model and model-to-text transformations form a corner stone in metamodelling, with a myriad of applications. Currently, existing frameworks for specifying model-to-text transformations are, however, either not general and flexible enough, or do not support bidirectionality.
Aufgabenstellung
A general and flexible framework for specifying high-level bidirectional model-to-text transformations is to be implemented using triple graph grammars (TGGs). Using the implemented solution, concrete use-cases (texual syntax for modelling languages, codegeneration, ...) are to be analysed and used as a proof-of-concept and a set of test-cases. Last but not least, based on the experience using TGGs, a series of possible improvements and extensions are to be motivated and suggested.
Voraussetzungen
- A good understanding of the MOF metamodel.
- Experience with current model-to-text solutions (Monticore, Xtext, Xpand)
- A good understanding of metamodelling concepts and technologies (TGGs, SDMs).
- Experience with parser generators and compiler technology (ANTLR, ...).
- A good understanding of JMI.
- A sound grasp of Java and general object-oriented design principles.
