The bflow* Hive -Adding Functionality to Eclipse-based Modelling Tools

Abstract. The bflow* Hive is a collection of Eclipse plug-ins that can be integrated into various Eclipse-based modeling tools. It adds several features that are useful in particular for model analysis and model exchange. Most of these features put the principle of end user-programming into practice: Modeling tool users can add their own add-ons at runtime without having to re-compile the original modeling tool. We hope that this will be useful in particular for researchers. They can extend a modeling tool with own model analysis features without having to touch the sources of the modeling tool
