Dipl.-Ing. Dr.rer.soc.oec.

Tanja Mayerhofer is a post doctoral research at the Business Informatics Group. She has studied Business Informatics at the Vienna University of Technology and received her PhD in 2014. Her PhD thesis is concerned with the development of executable modeling languages. The current research interests of Tanja are model-driven software engineering, language engineering, model execution, model analysis, model comparison, and model-driven reverse engineering. She has been involved in nationally and internationally funded research projects and leads the open source project moliz.

Model Execution based on fUML

In model-driven development models are considered as the key artifacts and, as a result, the success of the whole development process relies on these models and their quality. Consequently, there is an urgent need for adequate methods to ensure high quality of models.

Multi-Paradigm Modelling for Cyber-Physical Systems

Truly complex, designed systems, known as Cyber Physical Systems (CPS), are emerging that integrate physical, software, and network aspects. To date, no unifying theory nor systematic design methods, techniques and tools exist for such systems.

Language Engineering for Analyzable Executable DSMLs

The project LEA-xDSML (Language Engineering for Analyzable Executable Domain-Specific Modeling Languages) resides in the context of Model-Driven Engineering (MDE), which proposes the use of domain-specific modeling languages (DSMLs) to reduce the complexity associated with the development of complex software-intensive systems, as, for instance, found in the automation domain, production domain, and automotive domain.

Business Semantics on top of Process Technology

The BSopt project will deliver an integrated methodology for inter-organizational systems spanning from business models over business process models to their execution in a service-oriented architecture (SOA). Integrating business processes into a SOA is certainly a hot topic.

Advanced software-based seRvice provisioning and migraTIon of legacy SofTware

Successful software has to evolve to keep it compatible and up to date. Up to 90% of software cost is spent on maintenance and of this 75% is spent on the development of new features for staying competitive.

CPS/IoT Ecosystem

CPS/IoT Ecosystem is a joint initiative under „Hochschulraum-Strukturmittel (HRSM)“ national funding platform administered by Austrian Federal Ministry of Science, Research and Economy. Cyber-physical systems (CPS) is a concept that unifies all computer driven systems interacting closely with their physical environment.
