The power of MOF-based meta-modeling of components

Abstract

To allow comfortable and easy development, component systems have to provide a rather a big set of development supporting tools including at least a tool for composition and repository for storing and retrieving components. In this paper, we evaluate and present advantages of using MOF and meta-modeling during de?nition of component system and also during development of the supporting tools.

Most of the presented arguments are based on a broad practical experience with designing the component systems SOFA and SOFA 2; the former designed in the classical ad-hoc ?manual? way, while the latter via meta-modeling.
