Abstract: A code generating framework generates code for a model Application Program Interface (API). The framework comprises three components: an API code generator, a serialization code generator, and a deserialization code generator. The API code generator generates code for a model API. This model API produces a first model instance version in a first language. Code from the serialization code generator converts the model instance into a second version in a different language accessible to other applications (e.g., graphical modeling editors). Code from the deserialization code generator converts the second version of the model instance back into the original language. In a particular embodiment, the code generation framework generates JavaScript/XSJS APIs for manipulating model instances compatible with the Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF).

Abstract: In one embodiment, an approach to automated recurring concept extraction, from a plurality of input data models (schemas) is presented. The approach converts input data models to graphs, with typed elements. The graphs are mined for closed subgraphs that have a defined minimum support. The identified subgraphs can be filtered with a relevance metric. These subgraphs are converted to schemas or an appropriate representation, and stored for reuse in a repository. The repository can be used to automate further transformation or mapping of schemas presented to a system that uses the repository. In one example, the repository is used in a schema covering process to perform schema transformation.

Abstract: A piezoelectrically actuated driving and adjusting apparatus transmits both pure translation movements and rotation movements. The object of the present invention is to provide a piezoelectrically actuated driving and adjusting apparatus having a simple, compact and robust mechanical structure, capable of ensuring long adjustment paths and suitable for various adjustment and drive tasks using the same principle structure. Two parallel stacks of piezoelectric elements are arranged as close as possible to each other. The piezoelectric stacks are supported at first front surfaces on a crossbar by a tiltable coupling. Second front surfaces of the piezoelectric stacks, opposite to the first front surfaces, lie flat on a stiff common member that rigidly interconnects both the piezoelectric stacks. A biasing apparatus is provided to apply a symmetrical, predefinable force on the piezoelectric stacks by acting on the crossbar and the common member.

Abstract: The invention relates to a piezoelectric transducer particularly for use in transit time measurements. The object of the invention is to provide a piezoelectric transducer which ensures an in-phase two-dimensional pulse emission which, independent of the selection of a definite excitation frequency, substantially closely follows the electric excitation at a low time deformation of the pulse owing to transient and dying-out operations and which permits to obtain sufficiently high sound levels at low amplitudes of the excitation voltage.
