Architecture of OMG MOF-based repository systems

Published: 24 November 2008 Publication History

Abstract

Metadata repository systems store metadata in the form of models and meta-models. In this paper we introduce a general architecture of a MOF repository system and describe its modules. In addition, we examine the architectures of several existing MOF repositories such as MDR, EMF, dMOF and iRM and illustrate how these related to the proposed general architecture.
