Therefore, an underwatersensor network can be defined as a sensor network deployedunderwater that monitors underwater activity. The sensors de-ployed, such as Hydrophones, are responsible for registeringunderwater activity and transfer it to more advanced components.The process of data exchange between the aforementioned com-ponents perfectly define the Marine Observatory (MO) concept.The first step towards the implementation of this concept isdefining the environmental constraints and the required tools andcomponents (Marine Cables, Specific Servers, etc). The logicaland physical components that are used in these observatoriessupply interchange procedures between the various devices ofthe environment (Smart Sensors, Data Fusion Servers). In thispaper, we present an extension to our already extended Meta-Model that is used to generate a new design tool (ArchiMO).Thus, we propose new constraints to be taken under considerationat design time. We illustrate our proposal with an example fromthe MO domain. Additionally, we generate the correspondingsimulation code using our self-developed domain-specific modelcompiler. Our approach helps to reduce the complexity and timeof the design activity. %G English %L hal-01653617 %U https://hal.science/hal-01653617 %~ UNIV-BREST %~ INSTITUT-TELECOM %~ ENSTA-BRETAGNE %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-UBS %~ ENSTA-BRETAGNE-STIC %~ ENIB %~ LAB-STICC %~ INSTITUTS-TELECOM
