Abstract

In the context of crop model design for industrial purposes, this paper proposes a domain-specific modeling approach to provide a crop model factory for the modelers in agronomy. The authors’ approach proposes to separate the concerns of representing the simulation process (process-based dynamics) and the plant data structure. They propose a refined and stabilized metamodel for the dynamics based on past preliminary work. This paper also explains how the Model-View-Controller design pattern can be applied to DSML environments to produce a more specialist-friendly interface. In addition, the authors propose a metamodeling usage of the Model-View-Controller offering the potential to develop a DSML for DSMLs design.
