Abstract

Exchanging UML model data among tools of different vendors will be done with the technological means developed for the EIA/CDIF interim standards. This paper gives an overview about the development and present state of EIA/CDIF, the metametamodel underlying all of CDIF’s metamodels, the proposed mapping of the UML meta-metamodel to the CDIF meta-metamodel as well as the officially submitted proposal for a CDIF UML-metamodel.
