The language mappings as described in Chapter 6 provide a set of syntactic rules providing complete coverage for all of the
MOF modeling concepts. This means that a language can be rapidly created for any model specified using these concepts. In
addition, since the MOF modeling concepts have been designed as a basic set of common concepts, there will almost always be
a simple mapping from these concepts to alternative modeling techniques. Therefore it should be possible to use the syntax
described to develop a similar system for other modeling and repository tools.
Since the HUTN mappings are based on transformations to (and potentially from) MOF, it can also be used to translate to/from
XMI.
