Meta-Object Facility (MOF)

The Meta-Object Facility (MOF) is a framework used to define and organize the models used in software development. Think of it as a blueprint for creating other blueprints—specifically, it describes how to build models that specify the structure, behavior, and relationships of various software components. MOF provides a standardized way to define these models, enabling different tools and systems to understand and work with them consistently. This helps in managing complex software designs, promoting interoperability, and ensuring that models are precise and reusable across projects.
