English abstract:
Despite the pivotal significance of transformations for model-driven approaches, there have not been any attempts to explicitly model transformation languages yet. This paper presents a novel approach for the specification of transformations by modeling model transformation languages as domain-specific languages. For each pair of domain, the metamodel of the rules are (quasi-)automatically generated to create a language tailored to the transformation. Moreover, this method is very efficient when the transformation domains are the transformation rules themselves, which facilitates the design of higher-order transformations.
