DESCRIPTION
Today, system designs and their management are crucial parts of most systems development processes. To stay competitive engineers from several expertise domains use Model-Based engineering (MBE) to design the systems they intend to implement in order to specify, test, simulate, validate and iterate their design as soon as possible. System designs are living and evolving artefacts this imply to be able to manage them in an efficient and agile way. The MONDO FP7 EU project aims to comprehensively tackle the challenge of scalability in system design and management by developing the theoretical foundations and an open-source implementation of a platform and will offer to Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) users advanced flexibility in their different modeling approaches. This paper describes three different industrial demonstrators and three different modelling approaches that will be utilised to evaluate the capabilities of the MONDO technologies. For each demonstrator the interests of the industrial user partners are described along with their current and desired improvements in technologies to support MBE in a much more flexible way. Specific evaluation scenarios are specified for each of the targeted industrial domains as well.

THE MONDO PROJECT: CASE STUDIES
CASE STUDY 1: THE MODELLING TOOL
DOMAIN
8
The role of SOFTEAM◦ Apply MONDO technologies within
the SOFTEAM Open Source Modelio (www.modelio.org)
◦ MONDO technologies will be applied using different Modelio modules and standards benefiting multiple market sectors and users.
What SOFTEAM expects from MONDO◦ Enhance Modelio capabilities to
manage large-scale models: scalable model persistence and querying.
CASE STUDY 1: THE MODELLING TOOL DOMAIN
9
Evaluation◦ In-house modelling applications◦ Model: Voyages Discount
application (developed using TOGAF modelling) Voyages Discount application:
service provider proposing a list of unsold package tours from travel agencies.
Model provides a complicated business process that requires multiple stockholders / professionals communications
◦ MONDO technologies evaluated using this model in a collaborative environment composed by a large team.
CASE STUDY 1: THE MODELLING TOOL DOMAIN
10
Scenario 1: MONDO framework querying facility◦ Purpose: comparison of the query facilities and performances
provided by both Modelio and MONDO frameworks. ◦ Expected benefits: improve the Modelio querying facilities to
better meet end user’s needs in terms of performance (time and memory).
CASE STUDY 1: THE MODELLING TOOL DOMAIN
11
Scenario 2: MONDO framework collaborative modelling◦ Purpose: integrate the MONDO technologies for supporting
large and complex models and large collaborating teams.◦ Expected benefits: improve end users’ experience of
modelling gaining speed in the overall design in large team and large model context.
CASE STUDY 1: THE MODELLING TOOL DOMAIN
12
Scenario 3: MONDO support in M2T trans.◦ Purpose: specification and execution of M2T transformations.
Benchmarking and performance analysis: M2T transformations within Modelio.
◦ Expected benefits: improve the scalability and performance of Modelio M2T transformations in a large model context.
CASE STUDY 1: THE MODELLING TOOL DOMAIN
13
Scenario 4: MONDO support in M2M trans.◦ Purpose: compare the M2M transformation support by both
frameworks. Benchmarking and performance analysis: M2M transformations inside Modelio and EMF UML2 XMI import/export facilities.
◦ Expected benefits: improve the scalability and performances of Modelio M2M transformations in a large model contextby reducing the amount of needed time and resources .
CASE STUDY 1: THE MODELLING TOOL DOMAIN
CASE STUDY 2: THE OPEN-BIM
CONSTRUCTION DOMAIN
16
The role of UNINOVA◦ Research and development institute◦ Well-known activities on data and interoperability, at European and
National level◦ Special focus on the Architecture, Engineering, Construction and
Operations (AECO) domains.
What UNINOVA expects from MONDO◦ Enable an efficient management and exploitation of Open-BIM large-
to-huge-scale data models using best-of-breed MBE solutions incorporating AECO domain knowledge for the
best possibly experience and performance.
CASE STUDY 2: THE OPEN-BIM CONSTRUCTION DOMAIN
17
Scenario 1: File- (huge-) based collaboration◦ Purpose: enable model designers to
work on separate models and sharemodels (large files) having model coordination
◦ Expected benefits: enable off-line work on part of a large model, but having all parts promptly merged together within a single BIM model
CASE STUDY 2: THE OPEN-BIM CONSTRUCTION DOMAIN

Scenario 2: Shared- (huge-) model collaboration◦ Purpose: all users (model designers,
model coordinator, model clients) interact via a large shared-model in Model Server.
◦ Expected benefits: efficient querying/updating on large-sized BIM models enabling fruitful extreme BIM modelling collaboration.

Scenario 3: Quantity Take-Off in huge BIM models◦ Purpose: QTO are a detailed
measurement of the materials needed to complete a construction project used to format a bid. BIM provides a direct way to extract the quantities of a building by doing a complex query to the large BIM model.
◦ Expected benefits: Ability to traverse large BIM data model with outstanding performance (on-the-fly) to generate complex QTO reports making it possible to improve modelfor best quantities arrangement (thus best cost solution).
