【 摘 要 】

Model Driven Engineering approaches deal with the provision of models, transformations between them and code generators to address softwaredevelopment. One of the main advantages of this approach is the definition of aconceptual structure where the models used by business managers and analystscan be traced towards more detailed models used by software developers. Inthis paper we focus on this kind of model transformations, that is, modeltransformations that allow us obtain behavioural models of the service-orientedinformation system (Platform Independent Models) from high level businessmodels (Computational Independent Models). From our point of view, the maindrawback regarding CIM to PIM transformations lies in the alignment betweenwhat we model at CIM and PIM levels, the business view in the former and theinformation system view in the later. All this given, in this work we analyze, bymean of a case study, how it is possible to integrate both views and therefore,how we can help software developers to take the most of the businessknowledge represented in high level business models.
