Transformation and Validation with SWRL and OWL of ODM-Based Models

  • Conference paper

Part of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science book series (LNPSE,volume 7602)

Abstract

In this paper we present an approach for the specification of transformations and validations of ODM models. Adopting a SWRL/OWL based approach we will show how transform and validate models. Model-to-model transformations are described with SWRL rules, and validation of source and target models is achieved by SWRL.

Keywords

  • Source Model
  • Model Transformation
  • Target Model
  • Object Constraint Language
  • Cardinality Constraint

These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
