Due to their complexity, the syntax of modern modeling languages is preferably defined in two steps. The abstract syntax identifies all modeling concepts whereas the concrete syntax should clarify how these concepts are rendered by graphical and/or textual ...
We present the design and implementation of a debugging tool that displays a message-passing graph of the execution of an MPI application. Parts of the graph can be hidden or highlighted based on the stack trace, calling process or communicator of MPI call ...
This paper proposes a new approach in the field of energy conversion systems analysis and synthesis. The method is based on a generic and multi-platform description syntax, that clearly separates the information concerning the physical behavior of the mode ...
The syntax of modeling languages is usually defined in two steps. The abstract syntax identifies modeling concepts whereas the concrete syntax clarifies how these modeling concepts are rendered by visual and/or textual elements. While the abstract syntax i ...
In 1919 in an essay entitled Tradition and the Individual Talent T. S. Eliot stated that a poet “is not likely to know what is to be done unless he lives in what is not merely the present, but the present moment of the past, unless he is conscious, not of ...

Refactoring of UML class diagrams is an emerging research topic and heavily inspired by refactoring of program code written in objectoriented implementation languages. Current class diagram refactoring techniques concentrate on the diagrammatic part but ne ...
The Object Constraint Language (OCL) has been for many years formalized both in its syntax and semantics in the language standard. While the official definition of OCL's syntax is already widely accepted and strictly supported by most OCL tools, there is n ...
I present a strategy to define domain-specific languages with a natural-language syntax in an object-oriented host language. I describe ScalaDBC, a database library with an embedded DSL to encode queries in SQL-like syntax and that uses this strategy. ...
Generic types in C# behave invariantly with respect to subtyping. We propose a system of type-safe variance for C# that supports the declaration of covariant and contravariant type parameters on generic types. To support more widespread application of vari ...
