One of the major reasons is the appearing discouraging difficulty of metamodeling. This paper illustrates the relations, dependencies and differences between a traditional abstract object-oriented domain model and a meta-model for the same domain. It presents a new approach to model driven engineering of enterprise application software that integrates domain modeling and meta-modeling in order to take full advantage of both traditional and generative software development methods.enText/Conference Paper1617-5468
