MULTIGRAPH: an architecture for model-integrated computing

The design, implementation and deployment of computer applications tightly integrated with complex, changing environments is a difficult task. This paper presents the Multigraph Architecture (MGA) developed for building complex embedded systems. The MGA is a meta-level architecture which includes tools and methods to create domain specific model integrated program synthesis environments. These environments support the integrated modeling of systems independently from their implementation, include tools for model analysis and application specific model interpreters for the synthesis of executable programs
