Model Eco-Systems: Preliminary Work
Ghose, A. and Koliadis, G.
Modeling is core software engineering practice. Conceptual
models are constructed to establish an abstract
understanding of the domain among stakeholders.
These are then refined into computational models
that aim to realize a conceptual specification. The
refinement process yields sets of models that are initially
incomplete and inconsistent by nature. The aim
of the engineering process is to negotiate consistency
and completeness toward a stable state sufficient for
deployment / implementation. This paper presents
the notion of a model ecosystem, which permits the
capability to guide analyst edits toward stability by
computing consistency and completeness equilibria for
conceptual models during periods of model change.
