Abstract
This chapter is an introduction to model transformation, which is a key component of model-driven development. Sect. 3.1 describes the relevance and concepts of model transformations in general. Using the notions of typed attributed graphs in Chap. 2, Sect. 3.2 presents the main aspects of model transformations based on graph transformation on a general level. As a specific instantiation of these concepts, Sect. 3.3 introduces triple graph grammars (TGGs) as a powerful technique for bidirectional model transformations. Sect. 3.3 provides an overview of how these concepts are used as a foundation for Part III. This chapter is based on previous work [Erm09, EE10, HHK10, EEE+07, HEGO14].
