AtlanMod in a Nutshell

The AtlanMod team (for "Atlantic Modeling") is located in Nantes, France at EMN (Ecole des Mines de Nantes). It is a research team common to INRIA (Institut National de Recherche en Informatique et en Automatique), EMN (see the AtlanMod team description at INRIA) and LINA (Laboratoire d'Informatique de Nantes Atlantique). It is the result of a long-term specialization and research expertise on MDE (Model Driven Engineering) in the area of Nantes since 1990. This led to the creation of the MODELS conference series in June 1998 and of the ICMT conference series in 2007. Generally, the team activity has become highly visible in terms of research results, industrial contracts, and technology transfers.

Specializing on advanced model engineering, the AtlanMod research team is well known for its open source toolbox (AmmA for AtlanMod Model Management Architecture), including in particular the widely used ATL (AtlanMod Transformation Language) making AtlanMod a key international actor in the development of the model transformation area. Through the Eclipse Modeling community, there is an important number of organizations, academic or industrial, that are currently using the different tools composing this toolbox. AtlanMod also participates in the major international, European and national projects around MDE and achieves high impact by keeping a precise focus and getting many different worldwide collaborations.
