Examples of GPM languages are: The Unified Modeling Language (UML), an industry standard for modeling software-intensive systems EXPRESS, a data modeling language for product data, standardized as ISO 10303-11 IDEF, a group of languages from the 1970s that aimed to be neutral, generic and reusable Gellish, an industry standard natural language oriented modeling language for storage and exchange of data and knowledge, published in 2005 XML, a data modeling language now beginning to be used to model code (MetaL, Microsoft .Net ) GPM languages are in contrast with domain-specific modeling languages (DSMs).
