Abstract
Computer method, apparatus and system chains model-to-model transformations. In a series of model transformations, there are respective bridges before and after each model transformation. For each pair of consecutive model transformations in the series, the respective bridge (i) receives a model output from a first model transformation of the pair, the received model being in the respective output model format of the first model transformation of the pair, (ii) prepares the received model as input to a second model transformation of the pair, including preparing the received model to be in the respective input model format of the second model transformation of the pair, and (iii) inputs the prepared model to the second model transformation of the pair. The series of model transformations and respective bridges provide chaining of the model-to-model transformations. Each model transformation in the series is able to be separately configured.
