NMF Models

Model-driven engineering (MDE) is getting applied increasingly often both in industry and academia. Dedicated support to use models for analysis or transformation purposes reduces manual development efforts as repetitive infrastructure code can be reused. Most of the existing tools that support MDE are currently based on the Java platform. As a consequence, legacy software built on other platforms can hardly be reused.

Furthermore, MDE is increasingly applied on mobile platforms where traditional tools such as Eclipse are difficult to operate and alternatives are necessary. Ideally, such alternative modeling environments should support as many platforms as possible to reduce the code duplication in the support for multiple platforms.
