Abstract
A mechanism is provided for detecting pattern occurrences utilizing a transformation software application on a computer. An input model is received in which the transformation software application is configured to detect model elements playing pattern roles, and report them in an output model (conforming to new pattern result language). A pattern specification is configured as a declarative transformation relation that is used by the transformation software application to detect pattern occurrences in the input model. Pattern occurrences are reported in the output model, where the pattern occurrences are instances of the pattern detected in the input model.
