- About:
Gerti Kappel is full professor at the Institute of Information Systems Engineering at TU Wien, in the Business Informatics Group. Prior to that, from 1993 to 2001, she was a full professor of computer science (database systems) and head of the Department of Information Systems at the Johannes Kepler University Linz.
From 2016 to 2019, she was a member of the dean’s team of the Faculty of Informatics responsible for research, diversity, and financial affairs. Since the beginning of 2020 she acts as the dean of the Faculty of Informatics at TU Wien.
Her current research interests include Model Engineering, Web Engineering, and Process Engineering, with a special emphasis on cyber-physical production systems. Striving for the unity of research and teaching, she co-authored and co-edited among others „UML@Work“ (dpunkt.verlag, 3rd ed, 2005), „UML@Classroom“ (Springer, 2015), and „Web Engineering“ (Wiley, 2006).

UML Profile Generation for Annotation-based Modeling
Alexander Bergmayr
Michael Grossniklaus
Manuel WimmerKeywords:
Astract: The capability of UML profiles to serve as annotation mechanism has been recognized in both industry and research. With JUMP, we have presented a fully automatic approach to generate profiles from annotation-based Java libraries. We have demonstrated the practical value of JUMP by contributing profiles that facilitate reverse-engineering and forward-engineering scenarios for the Java platform. Its evaluation shows that automatically generated profiles are equal or even improved in quality compared to profiles currently used in practice.
