OrionPlanning: Improving Modularization and Checking Consistency on Software Architecture (VISSOFT 2015)

In this presentation, we present OrionPlanning, a prototype tool to assist model transformations at large scale. The tool provides support for model-based operations. These operations are performed in an interactive visualization. The contributions of the tool consist in: (i) providing iterative modifications in the architecture, and (ii) providing an environment for architecture inspection and definition of dependency rules.
