Model Representation in HTML Format

APIs are used in different ways in the information systems. However APIs are used commonly by external applications / tools to enable accessing the data/knowledge within the domain of one application. In the proposed design of CAPE-ModE, APIs are employed to access the model elements from outside CAPE-ModE domain. Applications and tools will use standard predefined (configurable) APIs to manipulate and query the model elements within the model repository. This can be done via using embedded MML and MQL within the source code of the host application / tool. Table 5-5 shows definitions of examples from the 

Execute command MML MML instruction to be embedded within the host application / tool to manipulate the underline model.

Examples of the formal UML definitions have been described by Gabbar (2001c). For the purpose of representing the plant design and simulation models, mathematical equations solver is needed (Linninger et al., 1999). OCL as a standard object-constraint language has been used within UML to enable defining constraints associated with each model element. For that it is proposed to enable the mathematical equations representation within OCL.
