6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the step of transforming further comprises the steps of: generating a first set of AMF Types that have counterpart ETF prototypes in the ETF model; and generating a second set of AMF Types that do not have counterpart ETF prototypes in the ETF model, the second set of AMF Types characterized by a set of attributes which are initialized with information described in the CR model, wherein the AMF Types include component types, service unit (SU) types, service group (SG) types, application types, service types, and component service (CS) types.
