The Open-Source Software: Scene2Model and CM Tools
Conceptual modelling without sophisticated tool support is not feasible in this day and age, as an automated processing of the modelled knowledge increases the model value for the users. OMiLAB believes in the importance of open models to facilitate knowledge exchange. This conviction leads to the necessity of supporting the development of open-source software for modelling, to ease people in applying and creating modelling tools. To this end, we will introduce open-source modelling tools which are created and used within OMiLAB. The chosen tools go beyond the creation of mere digital representations of systems but focuses on ones that support a processing of information to increase model value. The Scene2Model tool supports design thinking by allowing the creation and processing of digital models of innovative ideas. Additional added value comes from one of the core capabilities which supports the usage of physical co-creation in workshops and deriving enriched digital models automatically from such workshops. The tools CPSAM and RobAM allow to model scenarios in a high-level abstraction and connecting these models to Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) or robots, which understand the models an execute them. In this way the models come first-class citizens which capture knowledge and can be directly applied with the need for cumbersome intermediate steps, like programming the domain knowledge into the CPSs or robots. Last but not least, we will introduce a modelling tool which allows gather information from and executes rule on Internet of Things (IoT) environments.
