Abstract: A design assistance tool, which assists a design of at least two processes includes a database and a display, and is configured to: define a metamodel using one or more metaclass in each of the at least two processes; and perform a design of each process using the corresponding metamodel. The metamodel in one process has a derivation relationship and a different relationship with the metamodel in another process, the database stores the metamodel in one process and the metamodel in another process in associated manner according to the derivation relationship and the different relationship. In the derivation relationship, which is used as trace information, the one or more metaclass in one process is defined based on content of the one or more metaclass in another process. A design result of the process and the derivation relationship used as trace information are displayed in a view of the display.

Abstract: A design assistance tool, which assists a design of at least one process, defines a metamodel using at least one metaclass, performs a design of the at least one process using the metamodel, stores a content of the design in a database as a design content, displays the design content as a view on a display, and performs creation, modification, or deletion of at least one of the metamodel or a design result based on the metamodel using the view on the display. The view on the display includes multiple view types described in different formats. When the creation, modification, or deletion of at least one of the metamodel or the design result based on the metamodel is made using one view type, corresponding design information is stored in the database, and the creation, modification, or deletion is reflected in another view type based on the stored design information.
