After the introductory blog posts on the importance of modeling, the concept of model queries (with OCL and EMF-IncQuery) and model evolution, I demonstrated the translation of OCL expressions into the graph pattern language of EMF-IncQuery, and outlined the general translation patterns in two consecutive posts.
The current post will place the language of EMF-IncQuery in a broader context, show aspects where it its expressive power superior to certain other approaches, and where the current implementation needs to be extended.
