Abstract

The paper describes the design and implementation of a set of visual modeling editors. They aim to provide users with easy to use and customizable but yet semantically powerful tools for collaborative modeling in diverse domains of interest. The tools allow the creation, use and evolution of visual models and their underlying languages. The design, software architecture, technical implementation and graphic user interface of visual modeling language tools are discussed. The results of current field trials with the tools are also briefly outlined.
