Abstract
In the context of Model Driven Development, Model Transformation and Model Composition are two essential model management tasks. In this paper, we demonstrate how both tasks can benefit, in different ways, from the automation of another fundamental task: Model Comparison. We derive requirements for a model comparison solution incrementally, and demonstrate a concrete rule-based model comparison approach we have developed in the context of a generic model merging language.
