【 摘 要 】

There is a growing need for applications that are able toadapt themselves to the context of use. One promising approach for the adaptation of an application during its execution is the use of models at runtime. In this approach models of the application and its context of use are kept alive during the execution. The application can be adapted by reconfiguring the structure of these models. Model Reconfiguration has local aspects as it handles the structure of a model and has to deal with its specific properties. It also possesses global aspects, as the joint reconfiguration of several models is required due to consistency considerations. This paper aims at solving possible conflicts between the global and the local aspects of Model Reconfiguration by introducing a distinction between two Levels of abstraction that enables the designer to separate and interrelate global and local aspects of Model
