Abstract

OPM is bimodal: it employs both the visual (graphical) modality—OPD, and the verbal (textual) modality—OPL. The textual OPL representation of the OPM model has both human-oriented and machine-oriented goals. This chapter is devoted to presenting OPL and discussing its merits.

Among general-purpose modeling languages dominate the graphical ones such as UML ; textual modeling languages are not as popular though they have a big potential.
