In Part 5 we present some steps toward the automation of the POAD methodology. Chapter 15 discusses the UML metamodeling support for POAD models. Defining the relationship between POAD models and the UML metamodel is essential to enable tool support by existing UML tools. In Chapter 16 we discuss the existing tool support for applying, modeling, and composing design patterns and their support for POAD. Finally, Chapter 17 wraps the discussion on POAD and presents some plans to take POAD further into mainstream development.
