Abstract

Contemporary known and applied approaches to defining graph modeling languages are standardized. One their characteristic feature, which is fixed and static structure defined at compile time, contains generalizations and thus is difficult to change. The paper presents the results of the process of decomposing responsibilities which may be identified in meta-models. Such decomposition may be done if a meta-model is defined from the compile-time independent meta-model node and meta-model arc classes joint into meta-model graph at run-time. The Context-Driven Meta-Modeling Framework (CDMM-F) was designed to support defining such meta-model. The process of the responsibilities migration from one place they were originally concentrated to the right place is shown in the paper as well and this migration results in mapping them to the right elements of the CDMM-F.
