Customer feedback have indicated that a difficulty exists in using the NAF application with a mixture of both NAF and HOPEX vocabulary. This difficulty is visible in the NAF navigation tree which uses NAF vocabulary while created objects have HOPEX metaclass names.

To bridge the gap between both worlds (HOPEX and NAF) and simplify the appropriation of the NAF application by a NAF expert, the HOPEX metamodel has been translated and the notions used renamed.

This section therefore details the mapping made between the HOPEX and NAF concepts used.
