T6: Live Co-Evolution of Modeling Languages, Tools and Models in the Cloud
A language for a particular domain must evolve along with that domain. Keeping the modeling tools and existing models in sync with the language is an interesting challenge. Doing it live with multiple modelers and multiple metamodelers is fun. This tutorial investigates and demonstrates proven solutions for industrial scale co-evolution of languages, tools and models. Participants will see how changes to a language can be propagated to users safely and automatically, in the same way as changes made to models. The evolution of the language and models will be recorded in the version history, with participants able to see their changes and document them in version comments. Participants will gain practical experience and understanding by taking part in the modeling and metamodeling using the provided cloud-based tools. Explanations, discussions and tasks will help all participants think through the hows and whys of co-evolution and its mechanisms.
