A Relation Between Context-Free Grammars and Meta Object Facility Metamodels

Marcus Alanen, Ivan Porres, A Relation Between Context-Free Grammars and Meta Object Facility Metamodels. TUCS Technical Reports 606, Turku Centre for Computer Science, 2004.

Abstract:

Metamodels present the language of models, much in the way that grammars
present the language of programs. In this paper, we study the relation between context-free (Backus-Naur Form) grammars and Meta Object Facility metamodels and identify when and how we can convert a grammar to a metamodel and a metamodel to a grammar. An example of this mapping for a subset of Java is shown.
