  Minding My Metamodel
The constitutive metamodel does not pretend to avoid the reflexive paradox intrinsic to communication, and it does open a common ground for discussion about the practical implications of otherwise incommensurable theories.
The constitutive metamodel is a practical option, not an empirical truth or a logical necessity, and I recommend it for merely practical reasons.
First, the constitutive metamodel in no way precludes the judgment that technological determinist theories are empirically weak—which would be rightly regarded as a factor limiting their usefulness, although critics might argue that other factors are more important for some purposes.

 mdr: netbeans.org: Metamodels Catalog
For these metamodels (besides the link to the metamodel itself) also a link to an additional XMI file decorating the existing metamodel with the needed JMI tags is provided.
The metamodel is the Ontological Metamodel Extension for Generative Architectures (OMEGA), an extension to the MOF metamodel that allows ontological metamodeling.
With the metamodel not only Linguistic metamodeling is possible that serves the purpose of language definition, but also ontological metamodeling, that on the other hand, uses instantiation relationships to categorize and restrain model elements.

 GME: The Generic Modeling Environment
The configuration is accomplished through metamodels specifying the modeling paradigm (modeling language) of the application domain.
The metamodeling language is based on the UML class diagram notation and OCL constraints.
The metamodels specifying the modeling paradigm are used to automatically generate the target domain-specific environment.

 Software Magazine - Unisys' UREP Points the Way
For operations that are specified directly in the metamodel and which the programmer thus has to code by hand, this API is indispensable.
Fundamentally, XMI is an algorithm for deriving a DTD from a metamodel.
For example, when I attempted to export the metamodel shown in Figure 1 to UREP, UREP complained, saying that the multiplicity on the composite end of a composition association (i.e., a "strong aggregation") must be multivalued.

 MetaModel: Modelling Metabolic Processes under MS-DOS
MetaModel started life as a program in Fortran for running on University main-frame computers and intended for teaching the principles of metabolic control to students.
MetaModel 3.0 allows models to be defined that contain up to 20 reactions (enzymes) and up to 30 metabolites, and conservation constraints on the metabolite concentrations can be defined (though unlike Gepasi, for example, MetaModel 3.0 does not identify these automatically).
MetaModel 3.0 probably is not suitable for simulating complex models of the sort considered in current research projects, largely on account of the limited complexity of the kinetic equations that can be defined, but also because of its limited capacity to handle stoicheiometric constraints and processes that occur in multiple compartments.

 MetaGME: Metamodel Composition
Just as the reusability of domain models from application to application is essential, the reusability of metamodels from domain to domain is also an important consideration.
Ideally, a library of metamodels of important sub-domains should be made available to the metamodeler, who can extend and compose them together to specify domain languages.
Then changes in the metamodel libraries, reflecting a better understanding of the given domain, for example, propagate to the metamodels that utilize them.

 JOT: Journal of Object Technology - An Etymological and Metamodel-Based Evaluation of the Terms "Goals and Task" in ...
While there are many individual models of agent architecture, there is a general agreement that agents are able to act without the intervention of humans or other systems [36] [27, p35]: they have control both over their own internal state and over their behaviour.
The details of the extent to which this metamodel is used in each of the relevant AO methodologies is briefly discussed in the following subsections.
We thus conclude that an appropriate metamodel is that in Figure 7 with the addition of a whole-part relationship from Goal to Goal Part.

 Encyclopedia: Metamodel
Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) is a field of human endeavor concerned with empirically studying and modeling human performance and excellence, with the goal of creating transferable skill sets.
Broadly conceived, linguistics is the study of human language, and a linguist is someone who engages in this study.
In the initial formulation of the metamodel, the flaws are categorized into the following general groups: Flaw is a Nu-Metal band from Louisville, KY. However, despite their genre, their sound contains diversity that goes outside of the Nu-Metal classification.

 M (Glossary) [EA User Guide]
The relationship between a meta-metamodel and a metamodel is analogous to the relationship between a metamodel and a model.
Usage note: In the context of the MOF specification, which describes a meta-metamodel, for brevity the meta-metamodel is frequently to as simply the model.
A model library differs from a profile in that a model library does not extend the metamodel using stereotypes and tagged definitions.

This paper is a proposal for a UML Profile to facilitate expression of Object Role Modeling semantics in terms of the UML 1.3 Metamodel (see http://cgi.omg.org/cgi-bin/doc?formal/00-03-01).
The profile uses the extension mechanisms inherent to UML to clarify usage and semantics where necessary, and it proposes the use of the XML Metadata Interchange (XMI) specification for model exchange.
The UML metamodel, however, provides a structure that accommodates semantic information beyond what is typically expressed in the UML notation.

 Mia-Software - UML2 Metamodel   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
The UML2 project is an EMF-based implementation of the UML 2.0 metamodel for the Eclipse platform.
The objectives of this project are to provide a useable implementation of the metamodel to support the development of modeling tools, a common XMI schema to facilitate interchange of semantic models, test cases as a means of validating the specification, and validation rules as a means of defining and enforcing levels of compliance.
Note that the UML2 metamodel is subject to (significant) change until the UML 2.0 Specification is finalized.

 Performances Estimation Metamodel for MDA Based SoC Design
So the objective of this work is to integrate several performances estimation parameters in our metamodels, in order to be able to have as much as possible indications on the system performances during the architecture exploration phase and before the code generation.
Thus each concept of the metamodel is annotated with a subset of criteria.
This metamodel is integrated in GASPARD tool and used in the Y design flow for the platform specific (PIM) code generation.

In the metamodel we use "Relationship" to mean relationship type, which includes both the object types and a logical predicate (e.g.
The metamodel also determines the role order within relationships, although it would be possible to allow the user to specify this instead (but the added complexity for such extra flexibility does not seem worth the price).
Using the constraints metamodel in Figure 5, the four ORM constraints may be stored as the object-relation shown in Table 1.

I was assuming that the logical ID would be unique (so that it is really an "identifier") in the context of a particular extent; however, that won't be the case with the fully-qualified name of a class.
With this in mind, I am curious about why the source metamodel would be seperate from the physical metamodel.
I think all of the functionality in these two metamodels could be merged given additional provisions for classfiles.

 What's New in UML 2? A Question of Profiles   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
Mapping the profile to the UML and the UML metamodel were considered an important part of creating profiles but UML profiles were limited only by our imagination.
A metamodel is the underlying mechanism that defines the language for expressing a model.
We would have to add the metamodel changes to bring in the UML 2.1 metamodel as well as any of the elements that were built on top of that model.

 TDAN - Hay - Business Constraint Metamodel
This article will present the metamodel for constraints, in order to reveal exactly what it is that is not being displayed.
Note that we have seen part of this last issue, where we showed the metamodel of the inter-role constraint.
In that case, the business constraint was to constrain either an entity class or a role., and each business constraint element was constrained by a role.

 New metamodel for software development   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
It is written as a metamodel, which, in this context, can be thought of as a generic model of all the concepts needed to create a software development methodology.
Existing process-focussed metamodels are limited in scope, have errors in their conceptualization or are only implicitly defined.
AS 4651 uses an OMG-style (Object Management Group) layered architecture, in which the metamodel sits on the bottom as an infrastructure, providing support by means of a common framework on which to build your method, that is, your methodologies, assessment mechanisms, quality requirements and tools.

 CWM - Papers & Presentations
For example, the Transformation metamodel supports the definition of transformations between data warehouse sources and targets, and the OLAP metamodel allows data warehouses stored in either relational or multidimensional data engines to be viewed as dimensions and cubes.
The Management layer metamodels support the operation of data warehouses by allowing the definition and scheduling of operational tasks (Warehouse Process package) and by recording the activity of warehouse processes and related statistics (Warehouse Operation package).
First, standard UML extension mechanisms such as inheritance and tagged values can be used to adapt the normative CWM metamodels to particular uses; of course, the extent to which such extensions can be interchanged depends on the ability of tools at the endpoints of the interchange to understand the extensions they receive.

 MARS - A MetAmodel Recovery System Using Grammar Inference
The motivating problem was to address the issue of metamodel drift, which occurs when instance models in a repository are separated from their defining metamodel.
In most metamodeling environments, the instance models cannot be loaded properly into the modeling tool without the metamodel.
When using the GME, a modeler loads a metamodel into the tool to define an environment containing all the modeling elements and valid relationships that can be constructed in a specific domain.

 Print - Metamodel for Product Assembly   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
Understanding that a metamodel is a template that you can use to jump-start your own data modeling projects, let's proceed to create a product-assembly metamodel, an extension of the retail-sale metamodel.
The last step in creating this metamodel is to flesh out the design by adding a few attributes, as Figure 5 shows.
This metamodel, which you can use as a basis for product-assembly or manufacturing data models, is complex enough to give you a good foundation yet general enough to allow you ultimate flexibility as you customize it to your own specific situation.
