Abstract :
We contrast modelling languages that are founded on the use of a single model with those founded on use of multiple models. We propose that to best support the seamless and reversible development of reliable software, languages that follow the single-model principle are superior. We define this principle precisely, and discuss when it is insufficient, particularly for early requirements engineering
