MoDisco provides an extensible framework to develop model-driven tools to support use-cases of existing software modernization.
Contents
Overview
Modernizing an existing software system implies :
- Describing the information extracted out of the artifacts of this system
- Understanding the extracted information in order to take the good modernization decisions
- Transforming this information to new artifacts facilitating the modernization (metrics, document, transformed code, ...)
To support these activities, MoDisco aims at providing :
- Metamodels to describe existing systems
- Discoverers to automatically create models of these systems
- Generic tools to understand and transform complex models created out of existing systems
- Use-cases illustrating how MoDisco can support modernization processes
To facilitate reuse of components between several modernization solutions, MoDisco is organized in three layers:

Documentation
- See Project Plan....
- See Wishlist...
- See API Policy...
Relationship with other Eclipse Projects
MoDisco reuses lots of EMP projects:
- EMF to describe and manipulate models of existing systems.
- M2M to implement transformation of models into other models
- M2T to implement generation of text (documentation or code)
MoDisco also reuses other projects such as:
- JDT to create models out of Java source code
Team
MoDisco has been initiated by the AtlanMod Team (INRIA) and is strongly supported by Mia-Software:
- Hugo Bruneliere - AtlanMod (project leader)
- Gabriel Barbier - Mia-Software (committer)
- Nicolas Bros - Mia-Software (committer)
- Grégoire Dupé - Mia-Software (committer)
- Fabien Giquel - Mia-Software (committer)
- Frédéric Madiot - Mia-Software (committer)
- Jean Bezivin - AtlanMod
- Frédéric Jouault - AtlanMod
- Nicolas Payneau - Mia-Software
- Jean-Sebastien Sottet - AtlanMod
How to contribute?
The MoDisco project is open to contributors. All external contributions are welcome :
- new modernization use-cases
- extensions of MoDisco components
- metamodels of legacy technologies
- discoverers and model transformations
- See the MoDisco contribution guideline.
- See the MoDisco developer guide.
