Abstract

This paper describes DrawNET++, a prototype version of a model design framework based on the definition of model objects. DrawNET++ provides a graphical front-end to existing performance tools and a practical mean to study compositionality issues in multiformalism environments. The object oriented features of DrawNET++ provide a flexible architecture for structuring complex models.
