RT Journal Article T1 Simulation and analysis of MultEcore multilevel models based on rewriting logic. A1 Rodríguez, Alejandro A1 Durán-Muñoz, Francisco Javier A1 Kristensen, Lars Michael K1 Lenguajes de programación K1 Modelos matemáticos AB Multilevel modelling (MLM) approaches make it possible for designers and modellers to work with an unlimited numberof abstraction levels when specifying domain-specific modelling languages (DSMLs). In this paper, we present a functionalinfrastructure that allows modellers to define the structure and the operational semantics of multilevel modelling hierarchies,enabling simulation and analysis. Using the MultEcore tool, one can design and distribute the models that compose thelanguage family in a multilevel hierarchy, and specify their behaviour by means of multilevel transformation, so-calledmultilevel coupled model transformations. We give a rewrite logic semantics to MultEcore’s MLM, on which we have basedour automated transformation from MultEcore to the rewriting logic language Maude. Then, we rely on Maude to executeMultEcore models and to support analysis techniques, like reachability analysis, bounded and unbounded model checking ofinvariants and LTL formulas on systems with both finite and infinite reachable state spaces using equational abstraction. Weillustrate our developed techniques on a DSML family for Petri nets.
