Overview

We need to point out that the underlying modeling and transformation concepts of VIATRA2 are nonstandard.

• the model management framework (VIATRA2/Model_Space) is more expressive than MOF / EMF,
• the VIATRA2 Transformation Language is not QVT, but combines formal techniques being in use for more than 15 years.

Anyhow, VIATRA2 plans to support related standards by offering

• powerful and extensible model importers and exporters
• exporters/importers of other transformation languages (e.g. QVT)
• domain specific languages integrated to the framework as VIATRA2 (and thus Eclipse) plug-ins.
