-Briefly present Modelverse and how to execute
|
|
|
+As previously mentioned during the installation phase, the Modelverse is merely a collection of scripts.
|
|
|
+We briefly present how the Modelverse is structured, and introduce the most important scripts for general use.
|
|
|
+A more elaborate view on the architecture and the different scripts is only required for developers of the Modelverse.

+Simplified Architecture
|
|
|
+-----------------------
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The Modelverse architecture consists of three core concepts, which will be referred to throughout the documentation.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Modelverse State (MvS)
|
|
|
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The Modelverse State (MvS) is the memory of the Modelverse, and contains all data pertaining to it.
|
|
|
+This includes not only the different models created by the users, but also all metamodels, transformations, operations, but also all bootstrap files.
|
|
|
+Furthermore, it includes all execution state of operations being executed in the Modelverse.
|
|
|
+As such, the Modelverse State is the database of the Modelverse, which is the only component containing data.
|
|
|
+Only developers will ever have to directly interface with the Modelverse State.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Modelverse Kernel (MvK)
|
|
|
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The Modelverse Kernel (MvK) is the execution core of the Modelverse, and connects to the Modelverse State to fetch the instructions to execute.
|
|
|
+All its execution information is stored in the MvS as well, and therefore it has to (theoretically) query the MvS for each and every instruction.
|
|
|
+It merely consists of a set of model transformation rules which take the current state of the MvS, and do a set of modifications on it.
|
|
|
+Only developers will ever have to directly interface with the Modelverse Kernel.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Modelverse Interface (MvI)
|
|
|
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|

-the minimal necessary to meaningfully start using it!

-That is: distinction between interface, kernel, and state
