Title
OWL ontology to Ecore metamodel transformation for designing a domain specific language to develop aviation scenarios
Abstract
Ontology-driven software development has gained significant interest in domain-specific application development. Ontologies are treated as formal models representing knowledge, which can be used for automatic code generation. Among existing technologies, Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) has been widely used to generate domain-specific metamodels and Java code using Ecore. Such robust technologies suggest mapping ontologies to metamodels through series of transformations. In this paper we suggest transforming an ontology model to EMF Ecore metamodel for designing a Domain-Specific Language (DSL). We present the ontology developed for Aviation Scenario Definition Language (ASDL) to capture simulation scenarios in the aviation domain. We demonstrate key terminologies and their definitions in order to generate flight simulation scenarios. The use of Web Ontology Language (OWL) in developing ASDL ontology is discussed and its relation to ASDL Ecore metamodel is presented. This paper finally elaborates the challenges and shortfalls in mapping OWL ontology to Ecore metamodel in EMF.
