20.500.12556/DKUM-92299 Evolution of domain-specific modeling language: an example of an industrial case study on an RT-sequencer Model-driven engineering is a well-established software development methodology that uses models to develop applications where the end-users with visual elements model abstractions from a specific domain. These models are based on domain-specific modeling language (DSML), which is particular to the problem domain. During DSML use, new ideas emerge and DSMLs evolve. However, reports on DSML evolution are rare. This study presents a new DSML called RT-Sequencer that evolved from our DSML Sequencer to support, in addition to the Data Acquisition domain, also a new domain—Real-Time Control (RTC) systems. The process of defining models with a new language RT-Sequencer has changed in a way that new end-users were introduced—advanced endusers, which use general-purpose language (GPL) and advanced programming concepts to define modeling environments for the RT-Sequencer end-users. More specifically, an industrial experience with the RT-Sequencer is presented, where DSML was opened for extension so that a GPL code could be inserted into the model to create new visual blocks for the end-user, and the possibility to adapt and optimize the execution code for a particular task. Our experience shows the specific case of DSML evolution supporting another problem domain, and the implementation effort needed to extend domain-specific modeling language with GPL support. model-driven engineering domain-specific modeling languages measurement systems Real-Time Control systems data acquisition language evolution experience report domenski specifični jeziki evolucija programskih jezikov podatki true false true MDPI AG Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik https://www.mdpi.com/journal/applsci © 2022 by the authors Članek v reviji 2025-03-27 15:07:55 2025-03-27 15:07:55 2025-03-29 03:05:37 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2022 0 0 23 str. iss. 23 Vol. 12 28 Nov. 2022 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 2022-10-12 2022-11-28 2022-12-01 004.43 131987715 10.3390/app122312286 2076-3417 applsci-12-12286-v2.pdf applsci-12-12286-v2.pdf 1 E8EADF3B6E0149CF3A862298335D4623 275b8fdd4dd07509b0fbecd7cdaea3ba746f1affbcb4d06b9122bfbe489d202b 40ebb5f5-0b15-11f0-8bc4-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=189745 https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3417/12/23/12286 0 47aeb1d5-0b15-11f0-8bc4-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=189746 Fakulteta za elektrotehniko, računalništvo in informatiko 0 0 0
