Abstract

The aim of this bachelor’s project is to develop a generic graphical browser for meta-models. The 2D graphical representation of the meta-models will be supporting in its first version meta-models expressed in Ecore formalism but should be possible to extend it in order to support others (e.g. MOF meta-models).

This work will be accomplished by using Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) technology which is a Scalable Vector Graphics. SVG is a language for describing two-dimensional graphics in XML and an open standard created by the World Wide Web Consortium, which is also responsible for standards like HTML and XHTML The graphical representation of the meta-models will have a UML-like
layout using a subset of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) Class diagrams.

This 2D Meta-Model Browser will be integrated to the Model Model Transformation for Verification (MTV) pro ject which is being developed by the Software Modeling and Verification (SMV) group at the University of Geneva.
