abstract:
- lang: eng
text: Dynamic Meta Modeling (DMM) is a visual semantics specification technique
targeted at languages based on a metamodel. A DMM specification consists of a
runtime metamodel and operational rules which describe how instances of the runtime
metamodel change over time. A known deficiency of the DMM approach is that it
does not support the refinement of a DMM specification, e.g., in the case of defining
the semantics for a refined and extended domain-specific language (DSL). Up to
now, DMM specifications could only be reused by adding or removing DMM rules.
In this paper, we enhance DMM such that DMM rules can override other DMM rules,
similar to a method being overridden in a subclass, and we show how rule overriding
can be realized with the graph transformation tool GROOVE. We argue that rule
overriding does not only have positive impact on reusability, but also improves
the intuitive understandability of DMM semantics specifications.
