Abstract

The VIATRA (VIsual Automated model TRAnsformations) framework is the core of a transformation-based verification and validation environment for improving the quality of systems designed using the Unified Modeling Language by automatically checking consistency, completeness, and dependability requirements. In the current paper, we present an overview of (i) the major design goals and decisions, (ii) the underlying formal methodology based on metamodeling and graph transformation (iii) the software architecture based upon the XMI standard, (iv) and several benchmark applications of the VIATRA framework.
