Abstract

Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) promotes an active use of models in all phases of software development. In this paradigm, the design and usage of Domain-Specific Languages (DSL) for modelling in a certain application area is frequent. While in MDE, modelling has been traditionally supported by desktop computers, in this position paper we analyse useful scenarios for modelling using mobile devices, like smartphones or tablets. Moreover, we present a working architecture and a prototype tool, called DSL-comet, which enable collaborative mobile modelling and integrate seamlessly desktop and mobile graphical modelling environments.
