Rose files for EMF conversion from URN Metamodel

A few things need to be considered when updating this metamodel:

• Multiplicities and (private) role names are required for all navigatable association ends
• Java data types for the attributes (Etienne seems to infer that Date does not work)
• All classes have to be included (aggregation) directly or indirectly in the URNspec class.

UCM Scenarios Metamodel

This is the metamodel (Rose file) used in the MSC export / MSC viewer based on the UCM scenario definitions and traversal mechanism.

• Scenarios.mdl: UCM Scenarios Metamodel
• ScenariosNice.mdl: UCM Scenarios Metamodel (nicer diagrams, for printouts)
• Documentation in HTML (for people who do not have access to Rose)
• All documentation as a ZIP file
