What’s this talk about? Virtual EMF (for the purpose) – A new prototype dedicated to the transparent composition weaving and composition, linking of models – A direct extension of EMF – An Eclipse Labs project p // g g / / p g/p http://code.google.com/a/eclipselabs.org/p /virtual-emf/ MoDisco (for a p ( possible use case) ) – A generic and extensible framework for elaborating on Model Driven Reverse Engineering solutions – A MDT project: http://eclipse.org/MoDisco/ 02/11/2011 © AtlanMod (INRIA, EMN & LINA) and Mia‐Software 3

Virtual EMF in a Nutshell…02/11/2011 © AtlanMod (INRIA, EMN & LINA) and Mia‐Software 4

Why “virtual”? Overview… y Definition: “a virtual model is a model whose a (virtual) elements are proxies to elements contained i diff i d in different models” d l ” Model Ma Links Model Mb Virtual EMF Virtual Model EMF‐based EMF based EMF‐based EMF based Tool A VMab Tool B 02/11/2011 © AtlanMod (INRIA, EMN & LINA) and Mia‐Software 5

Why “virtual”? Overview… y Virtual model properties: – Interoperability. Transparent use with all standard modeling tools d d d l l – Scalability. Support for very big models  Faster creation time. No additional copy of model elements  Low memory usage. No data duplication, direct access to model elements –SSynchronization. A t h i ti Automated because of shared t db f h d model elements –GGenericity. S i it Support f all types of inter-model t for ll t fi t d l links (e.g.; associate, filter, merge, …) 02/11/2011 © AtlanMod (INRIA, EMN & LINA) and Mia‐Software 6

How “virtual”? Architecture… Virtual EMF is made of 2 main components– Implement EMF‐based EMF‐based the Model Tool A Tool B Access API A uses uses uses EMF standard Model Access API– Manage implements implements implements uses Linking API the XMI X I CDO C O Virtualization Vi li i “virtual” Serialization Mapping API accesses accesses links li k uses File Database System 02/11/2011 © AtlanMod (INRIA, EMN & LINA) and Mia‐Software 7

How “virtual”? Architecture… Virtualization API – Refinement of base EMF model access operations (e.g.; createResource, eGet, eSet, ) (e g ; createResource eGet eSet …)  Retrieval of referenced elements  Support for virtual links – Generation of the “virtual” composed metamodel  Could be also “virtualized” in next versions virtualized Linking API g – Current implementation via a model weaving technology (AMW), others may be provided later  Representation of inter-model relationships  Transparent usage of virtually linked elements p g y 02/11/2011 © AtlanMod (INRIA, EMN & LINA) and Mia‐Software 8

Many potential real applications! yp pp Model association in general – E.g.; transparent inter-model dependencies M d l composition Model iti – E.g.; complementary models integration Model merging – E.g.; similar models fusion g; Model filtering – E g ; model elements hiding E.g.; Model overriding –EE.g.; d li t d elements removal duplicated l t l Etc. 02/11/2011 © AtlanMod (INRIA, EMN & LINA) and Mia‐Software 9
