This document discusses the Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) and its relationship to the Model Driven Architecture (MDA) standards. It covers how EMF implements aspects of the MOF standard like Ecore aligning with MOF 2.0, EMF XMI mapping to MOF, and EMF Java mapping not fully aligning with JMI. It also discusses how EMF does not currently implement CMI for CORBA mappings. Finally, it outlines several related technologies that EMF and MDA could explore further like aspect-oriented modeling, product line practices, and generative programming.
