ABSTRACT

Model-Driven Development (MDD)[1] is a proven paradigm for constructing cost-effective applications. The MDD design cycle satisfies time-to-market constraints. Inspired by object-orientation (OO programming languages, OO databases, OO analysis and design methods), MDD promotes software quality, reusability, and maintainability. Models,[2] which are first-class components in the development process, also facilitate ...
