The paper introduces a novel Context-Driven Meta-Modeling Paradigm (CDMM-P) and discusses its properties. The CDMM-P changes the traditional division of responsibilities within the data layer in software systems. It facilitates the interchangeable usage of both objects representing data and objects representing relationships. The decomposition of specific responsibilities results in the weakening of internal data model dependencies. This in turn allows for run-time construction of the whole data model. The proposed paradigm facilitates exceptional flexibility in the implementation of the data layer in software systems. It may be applied to domain modeling in enterprise applications as well as to the modeling of any ontology, including the construction of modeling and meta-modeling languages. As such, CDMM-P underpins a broad domain of Context-Driven Meta-Modeling Technology (CDMM-T).

W artykule wprowadzono nową koncepcję Paradygmatu Meta Modelowania Sterowanego Kontekstem (CDMM-P) oraz przedyskutowano jego własności. CDMM-P zmienia tradycyjny podział odpowiedzialności w warstwie danych systemów softwerowych. Ułatwia wymienne stosowanie zarówno obiektów reprezentujących dane, jak i obiektów reprezentujących relacje. Podział tych specyficznych odpowiedzialności skutkuje osłabieniem wewnętrznych zależności modelu danych. Pozwala to z kolei na konstruowanie całej warstwy danych w czasie wykonania. Proponowany paradygmat zapewnia wyjątkową elastyczność implementowania warstwy danych systemów softwerowych. Może być on stosowany do modelowania dziedzinowego aplikacji korporacyjnych i do modelowania dowolnego systemu pojęć (ontologii) z konstruowaniem języków modelowania i metamodelowania włącznie. CDMM-P stanowi podstawę szerokiej dziedziny Technologii Meta Modelowania Sterowanego Kontekstem (CDMM-T).
