Difference between revisions of "MoDisco"

Describing the information extracted out of the artifacts of this system
Understanding the extracted information in order to take the good modernization decisions
Transforming this information to new artifacts facilitating the modernization (metrics, document, transformed code, ...)

To support these activities, MoDisco aims at providing :

Metamodels to describe existing systems
Discoverers to automatically create models of these systems
Generic tools to understand and transform complex models created out of existing systems
Use-cases illustrating how MoDisco can support modernization processes

To facilitate reuse of components between several modernization solutions, MoDisco is organized in three layers:

Use-Cases: tools providing a solution for a specific modernization use-case.

Technologies: components dedicated to one legacy technology but independent from any specific modernization use case.

Infrastructure: generic components independent from any legacy technology.

Relationship with other Eclipse Projects

MoDisco reuses lots of EMP projects:

EMF to describe and manipulate models of existing systems.
M2M to implement transformation of models into other models
M2T to implement generation of text (documentation or code)

MoDisco also reuses other projects such as:

JDT to create models out of Java source code

Team

MoDisco has been initiated by the AtlanMod Team (INRIA & Ecole des Mines de Nantes), and is now strongly supported by Mia-Software:
