  abstract: "Metamodel evolution is becoming an inevitable part of software projects that use domain-specific modeling. Domain-specific modeling languages (DSMLs) evolve more frequently than traditional programming languages, resulting in a large number of invalid instance models that are no longer compliant with the metamodel. The key to addressing this problem is to provide a solution that focuses on the specification of typical metamodel changes and automatically deduces the corresponding instance model migration. Additionally, a solution must be usable by domain experts not familiar with low level programming issues. This paper presents the Model Change Language (MCL), a language and supporting framework aimed at fullling these requirements."

  abstract: "Metamodel evolution is a significant problem in domain specific software development for several reasons. Domain-specific modeling languages (DSMLs) are likely to evolve much more frequently than programming languages and commonly used software formalisms, often resulting in a large number of valuable instance models that are no longer compliant with the metamodel. In this paper, we present the Model Change Language (MCL), aimed at satisfying these requirements."
