Domain-Specific Conceptual Modeling

This third volume of the book series Domain-Specific Conceptual Modelling reports new application cases for domain-specific modelling languages and for the engineering of modelling languages and tools. All cases are using the ADOxx metamodeling platform or toolkits from the Digital Innovation Environment shared by the OMiLAB Community of Practice, which are available for open use. Via this platform, participants can share ideas and engage in an exploration process regarding model-based decision making, augmented intelligence or model-driven systems engineering.

All reported cases originate in research initiatives but are also adequate for teaching, demonstrations or experimentation tooling that can be further expanded to better grasp the benefits of metamodeling and scripting of model-based functionalities. Each chapter result is elevated with the possibility to download the modelling tool and apply the theoretical concepts practically following case studies and examples provided by the author. In addition to describing novel domain-specific languages or language extensions for diverse purposes and levels of specificity, the book offers detailed instructions on how to build models in a particular application domain including the management of Internet of Things facilities, decentralized governance, intelligence augmentation, or digital nudging strategies.

Overall, the collection of works presented here will benefit experts and practitioners from academia and industry alike, including members of the conceptual modeling community as well as lecturers and students.
