DLM — Domain Level Modeling

Description

DLM (short for Domain Level Modeling) is a language design to support domain modeling with multiple classification levels. It is based on the concept of orthogonal ontological classification to support multi-dimensional multi-level modeling.

Implementation

A partial implementation is available as a language defined with ConceptBase. This implementation supports main concepts of the language design, creation of models, visualising models (including dimension support), and sanity-checking of models.
