Abstract :
In the recent years, software modeling became an essential part of designing large software systems. However, efficient model processing techniques are required, unless we use models only for documentation purposes. One way to improve efficiency is to apply model transformations in parallel. This paper introduces a truly parallel model transformation framework focusing on a new pattern matching approach. By using this new approach, the framework is now scalable and much more efficient than any parallel model transformation approach before.
