Abstract
The petrochemical industry is becoming increasingly complex and, as a result, different software platforms are used to assist in system design. Generally, it happens that the same component of the physical plant is (re)modeled on different software platforms, so the reuse of these models becomes difficult, compromises system interoperability, and generates the need for rework in projects. Previous work proposed the infrastructure named M4PIA (Model-Driven Engineering for Petrochemical Industry Automation), which allows to represent industrial plants through different, compatible and object-oriented models. By means of model transformations, it supports automatic code generation from a high-level abstraction model to specific software platforms. The present work provides the integration of Round-Trip Engineering (RTE) in the M4PIA infrastructure so that from a platform-specific model it allows to obtain, through model-to-model (M2M) transformation, a platform-independent model. In order to validate the implemented RTE transformations, it was developed a case study related to a simplified gas compression system.
