As the scale, complexity, and scope of software-intensive systems continue to grow, so does the importance of synergistically integrating two important emerging paradigms in software engineering - multi-level modeling and multi-view modeling. While stable tooling for both has been developed by research institutions in recent years, to date no tool has attempted to integrate the two at a fundamental level. In this paper, we describe some first steps we have taken in this direction by integrating the Vitruvius V-SUM-based multi-view environment with the Melanee multi-level modeling environment. In particular, we show how Vitruvius's Reactions language, which allows different models in Vitruvius V-SUMs to be kept consistent, can be extended to support multi-level V-SUMs and views represented in Melanee's dialect of multi-level modeling.
