User-Centric Model-Aware Recommendations for Industrial Domain-Specific Modelling Languages
ACM/IEEE International Conference on Model Driven Engineering Languages and Systems Companion (MODELS-C), pp. 330–341
Abstract
Domain-specific modelling languages (DSMLs) facilitate practitioners in solving complex modelling scenarios related to their particular domains. As such heterogeneous domains grow in complexity, industrial DSML practitioners often face challenges in getting assistance with the help of effective methods, guidance, and support for their current modelling situation. Often, only a static source of modelling information is provided to these practitioners which leads to endless search for information relevant to their modelling. An integrated approach that combines the modelling language, method, and the modelling tool in a single modelling environment is still missing. To solve this challenge, we integrate various aspects of methods, including providing general training material for the models, commonly asked questions in the respective domains, active recommendations for the models in consideration, and prescriptive process models that detail the current modelling situation for these DSML practitioners. In this paper, we detail a methodology that provides methods, techniques, and recommendations to practitioners with the help of configurable rules that are checked against the current models and a predefined dataset of information related to the specific domain and the DSML. Ultimately, methods and recommendations that are directly integrated within the DSML and the modelling tool, by analysing model information, is more beneficial in actively assisting practitioners in their modelling and fosters the use of such industrial DSMLs.
