In a number of scenarios, services generated
using a model-driven development (MDD) approach could
benefit from "reflective" access to the information in the
models from which they have been generated. Examples
are monitoring, auditing, reporting, and business intelligence
scenarios. Some of the information contained in the models
of a service can statically be generated into its source code.
In a distributed and changing environment this approach
is limited, however, due to the fact that models and their
relations evolve after the generation and deployment of
a service. For example, the current model of a service
might be different than the deployed version of the service.
Our approach to solve this issue is a Model-Aware Service
Environment (MORSE). It consists of a model repository
that manages MDD projects and artifacts, and model-aware
services that interact with the repository for performing
reflective queries on the models stored in the repository.
Thus, MORSE supports the dynamic, reflective lookup of
models in service-oriented systems.
