Abstract
One of the main features of Model Driven Architecture is a model-to-model (M2M) transformations, which improve the overall model-driven systems development process by speeding up the development process itself and also enabling the reusability of the existing models within a single or even multiple projects. However, CASE tool-supported M2M transformations quite often lack so needed flexibility and customization options. The main goal of this paper is to present a practical model-driven approach to improve the usability of partial model-to-model transformations in a CASE tool environment. The approach is currently implemented in the CASE tool MagicDraw; however, it can be adopted by any other CASE tool that meets certain capability requirements.
