Modularization concepts have been introduced in several modeling
languages in order to tackle the problem that real-world models
quickly become large monolithic artifacts. Having these concepts
at hand allows for structuring models during modeling activities.
However, legacy models often lack a proper structure, and thus,
still remain monolithic artifacts.
In order to tackle this problem, we present in this paper a modularization
transformation which can be reused for several modeling
languages by binding their concrete concepts to the generic
ones offered by the modularization transformation. This binding
is enough to reuse different modularization strategies provided by
search-based model transformations. We demonstrate the applicability
of the modularization approach for Ecore models.Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad TIN2012-32273Junta de Andalucía TIC-5906Junta de Andalucía P12-TIC-186
