Use of meta-data models in ISD
By specifying the conceptual structure of a method metamodels can cover support for:
Abstraction and modeling
- modeling editors and other tools (reuse, naming conventions)
Consistency checking and maintenance
- “change of a class name in one place reflects elsewhere”, etc.
- integration and linkages between methods
Form conversion
- code generation, testing material, etc.
- exports to other tools
Review
- documentation, summary reports
