In case you are interested in software patterns, I would highly 
recommend the book "Design Patterns" by the Gang of Four', namely Erich 
Gamma, Richard Helm, Ralph Johnson and John Vlissides. Maybe you have it 
in a library near you.

Also, I'm getting way lost in this MOF/UML/XMI stuff. I'll have to read 
some doc about this...
