Abstract

Model driven approach uses distinct models for representing various kinds of complex knowledge. Use of appropriate models allows for taking advantage of formal checking, testing, and validating possibilities available for the models. Although the notations do not provide any design method or software process, this paper offers a step to integrated modeling using them. We present an overview of the existing OMG solutions for knowledge representation used in software engineering, focusing on UML, BPMN, DMN and CMMN models and the diagrams provided by these notations. We perform an analysis of these approaches in terms of Kruchten’s 4+1 view model architecture as well as the Zachman Framework.
