The deliverables of the research will be a meta-modeling tool to facilitate the model transformation research activities and a collection of application modules. The tool will be designed to generate tailored formalisms and integrated development environments. One or more transformation formalisms will be developed that allow model transformation all the way to an executable specification. This tool forms the basis for additional functionality based on artificial intelligence techniques to perform model complexity and representation transformation tasks. In turn, this will be coupled to software modules that implement the application tasks such as optimization and simulation. Apart from the research aspects involved in this, the specific applications of the inter- and intra-formalism model transformation will be further developed and investigated.
