An EMF Framework for Event-B

The Rodin platform for Event-B formal modelling is based on a bespoke model repository. While this approach has some advantages it also means that the platform does not benefit from the host of emerging technologies and supporting packages that are freely available for open source modelling frameworks.

In order to make this support available for our Rodin tools we have now engineered a front-end EMF based representation of Event-B
