The design and specification of an extensible class library presents a difficult challenge: because extensibility comes from allowing the user to override parts of the implementation, more of the internal structure must be exposed to the user than in a typical procedure library. This raises issues in both how the library is designed and how its specification is written. Specification of the CLOS Metaobject Protocol required a combination of new and existing techniques to address these issues. We present those techniques, and discuss their relation to the underlying issues.

The advent of domain-specific modeling in enterprise systems development has given rise to new tool requirements. Existing tools do not offer sufficient modeling guidance or inconsistency management for the multitude of new metamodels and models. Specifically, there is a need to offer guidance on 1) valid editing operations, 2) ensuring consistency among models, 3) bridging the gap between models and custom code, and 4) managing the evolution of domain-specific languages. Based on two empirical case studies, we propose a new unirepresentational modeling tool - SmartEMF - which provides guidance and inconsistency management when developing enterprise systems with multiple domain-specific languages.

This research explores the synergies between object-oriented application frameworks and model-driven engineering. We propose Framework-Specific Modeling languages (FSMLs) which are domain-specific modeling languages designed for areas of concern to object-oriented frameworks. A frameworkspecific model expressed using an FSML describes how an application built on top of a framework is using the framework. The semantics of FSMLs can be precisely defined based on framework-completion knowledge: the prescribed steps and rules of writing the framework-completion code for the given framework. The mapping between the abstract syntax of an FSML and its base framework's API enables automatic forward-, reverse-, and round-trip engineering of the completion code.
