【 摘 要 】

In state-of-the-art of MDE platforms semantic technologies such as ontologies are rarely used. Our aim is to understand the role of ontologies in supporting model-driven engineering, in particular MDE platforms. MDE platforms may benefit from semantic technologies in formal model semantics and automated reasoning on different levels of the metamodelling architecture. We present an ontology-aware MDE platform architecture and outline some application scenarios where ontologies and automatic reasoning may bring benefit to such platforms. Additionally, an example of using ontologies for verification checks of mapping models in the course of metamodel compositionis illustrated.
