Resourcebus - A New Substrate for Model-driven Creations

Petr C. Smolik, Pavel Vitkovsky

Abstract

In this paper we present our on-going work on a framework we are building as a basis for construction of modeling and metamodeling environments. Resourcebus is basically a web-based resource-oriented computing environment for creation and execution of dynamic resources based on interpretation of models. Resourcebus adheres to the linked data principles and REST architectural style, and enables publishing models on the web using open standards. The framework includes built-in versioned storage, caching, access control, and set of various interpreters. We are developing Resourcebus primarily as a runtime environment for model storage, model interpretation, and code generation. Resourcebus itself knows nothing about metamodels and does not implement any particular meta-metamodel. It just provides an environment for creating them. We conclude this paper with a list of issues that still need to be resolved.
