  Article:   CONCEPTUAL MODELING EVOLUTION. A FORMAL APPROACH.

Authors:  .
 
       
         
  Abstract:  

The aim of this paper is to investigate the possible types of conceptual variability and to propose shifting strategies, like refactoring, forward conceptual abstraction, and conceptual specialization to switch between conceptual models. A biological evolution-based model is proposed to describe the changes within the structure of the studied models. The transformations that highlight the conceptual modeling variability in ontogenic and phylogenic processes are formalized.

Key words and phrases. conceptual modeling, refactoring, biological evolution.
