Building chatbots as use case for your modeling course. Interested?
I know how difficult is to teach modeling and model-driven engineering. I failed myself. But I think a cool use case such as creating chatbots could be a way to motivate students to learn MDE.
Systematic Approach to Generate a Diverse Set of Model Instantiations
When testing or validating a model we need a diverse set of instances that helps us to analyze the different ways such model can be satisfied. Our work uses classifying terms and constraint strengthening to generate such diverse set.
How are UML Class Diagrams built in practice? – A usability study
See some conclusions on the usability of UML tools after analyzing over 10h of video recordings of students trying to draw a UML class diagram. Hint: there is plenty of things to improve.
Is there a future for Model Transformation Languages? (survey results + tell us what you think of them!)
Are you using model transformation languages to manipulate your models? If not, why? Should we just get rid of all transformation languages and use plain Java?. Participate in this discussion about the future of model transformations.
Concerning Concerns in Modeling – Terms and Examples
Clarifying all the different strategies you could follow when using modeling for the development of User Interfaces and Systems Development
An LSTM-Based Neural Network Architecture to replace Model Transformations
We propose to take advantage of the advances in Artificial Intelligence and, in particular, Long Short-Term Memory Neural Networks (LSTM), to automatically infer model transformations from sets of input-output model pairs.
Low-code platforms to build smart apps
Low-code platforms are starting to offer integration with AI libraries and components to allow you design smart apps that combine the best of the low-code and AI worlds. Take a look!
I created a DSL in Python and I love it!
crestdsl is a great example of an internal DSL embedded in Python. Read on to see why the author chose to do an internal DSL instead of an external DSL and what makes Python such a great host language for it.
Modeling and Artificial Intelligence: friends or foes?
Modeling and AI should not be just friends, they must be best friends forever. There are plenty of opportunities in the intersection of these two powerful paradigms. Check them out in this talk!
DevOps for models and modeling DevOps – Workshop at Models’19
Can modeling and MDE contribute to DevOps? And, conversely, can DevOps help in the continuous integration and evolution of modeling artifacts themselves?
UmlToNoSQL: Mapping Domain Models to Heterogeneous Datastores
Code-generation from UML models to a number of SQL and NoSQL platforms. Including the possibility of running OCL queries on top of this combination of platforms.
