Not Getting Rid of Meta
October 2, 2005
It’s taken me ages, relatively speaking, to link to Steve Cook’s post on getting rid of meta. In the meantime, though, he’s written my comment for me:
A metamodel specifies the concepts of the language in which the model is defined.
That seems to be about as clear as it gets, as opposed to this:
[…] we decided to call the models of the concepts in our DSLs Domain Models; which contain Domain Classes, Domain Relationships, Domain Properties, Domain Roles and so on. These models are used to generate tools, and serialized in files. We also have a model which we use to generate the tool and formats that we use to manipulate Domain Models – we call this the Domain Model Domain Model, or DMDM
