[news.eclipse.modeling.gmt.amw] Re: [AMW OAM] Creating a (populated) ont

[Marcos Didonet Del Fabro <mddfabro@xxxxxxx>]

Hello,

One idea that could be done is to create a transformation MA2OWL based 
on the MOF_OAM2OWL transformation. This transformation would 'populate' 
the ontology based on the Ma models. MA2OWL would be automatically 
produced by using a higher-order transformation (a transformation that 
produces transformations). This may be relatively difficult to 
implement, though it would be quite interesting!


Regards,

Marcos.
