N2 - A crucial prerequisite for the success of Model Driven Engineering
(MDE) is the seamless exchange of models between
different modeling tools demanding for mappings between
tool-specific metamodels. Thereby the resolution of heterogeneities
between these tool-specific metamodels is a ubiquitous
problem representing the key challenge. Nevertheless,
there is no comprehensive classification of potential heterogeneities
available in the domain of MDE. This hinders the
specification of a comprehensive benchmark explicating requirements
wrt. expressivity of mapping tools, which provide
reusable components for resolving these heterogeneities.
Therefore, we propose a feature-based classification of heterogeneities,
which accordingly adapts and extends existing
classifications. This feature-based classification builds the
basis for a mapping benchmark, thereby providing a comprehensive
set of requirements concerning expressivity of dedicated
mapping tools. In this paper a first set of benchmark
examples is presented by means of metamodels and conforming
models acting as an evaluation suite for mapping tools.
