My objective is to define a mapping from MOF to a formal method. While there are various approaches that describe mappings UML class diagram to these formal domains, I would like to adapt this work to MOF, since MOF can be considered as a subset of UML class diagram. So, first I have to pull out the main different concepts between MOF and UML to accomplish this adaptation (Ex. MOF does not support associative classes).
Can someone help me enrich this set of dissimilarities?
Dear Amine,
You can find the latest MOF Spec here: http://www.omg.org/technology/documents/modeling_spec_catalog.htm#MOF
If you stick to EMOF (the essential primitives) you will see that they are only a few and your task will be easier.

Sergio
Dear Sergio,
actually, this morning, I started by looking at the latest specification of MOF, including essential and complete MOF that is built from EMOF and the
Core::Constructs of UML 2.
Your answer shows me that, I am on the right track. Thank you very much.
The MOF specification v2.4.1 contains information on this in sections 12.4 EMOF Constraints and 14.4 CMOF Constraints
