Abstract:
In this paper, we propose the integrated technique related to metrics in a Model Driven Development context. More concretely, we focus on the following three topics; 1) the application of a meta modeling technique to specify formally model-specific metrics, 2) the definition of metrics dealing with semantic aspects of models (semantic metrics) using domain ontologies, and 3) the specification technique for the metrics of model transformations based on graph rewriting systems.
