Metamodel

A metamodel is a model used to describe, analyze, or guide the development of other models. Think of it as a blueprint for creating models—it defines the structure, rules, and components that models should follow. Instead of focusing on specific data or processes, a metamodel provides a higher-level framework that ensures consistency and clarity across different models within a particular domain. This helps in designing, understanding, and managing complex systems more effectively, much like how architectural blueprints standardize building design for easier construction and communication.
