Abstract
In a model editing apparatus, a model transformation function transforms SM (source model)into TM (target model), and generates TDM (transformation dependency model). Moreover, when an SM editor generates SMby updating SM, the model transformation function transforms SMinto TMand generates TDM. When a TM editor generates TM_n by editing TMindependently of the change in SM, a Change element registration function registers a difference Δbetween TMand TM_n in TDM, thereby generating TDM_n. Then, in response to a call, a merge function merges a difference Δbetween TDMand TDMextracted by a Δ1 extraction function, and a difference Δextracted from TDM_n, according to prestored processing patterns.
