Software Modelling Languages: A Wish List
Brian Henderson‐Sellers, César González-Pérez, Owen Eriksson, Pär J. Ågerfalk, Greg Walkerden · 2015
Contemporary software engineering modelling tends to rely on general-purpose languages, such as the Unified Modeling Language. However, such languages are practice-based and seldom underpinned with a solid theory -- be it mathematical, ontological or concomitant with language use. The future of software modelling deserves research to evaluate whether a language base that is compatible with these various elements as well as being philosophically coherent offers practical advantages to software developers.
