Abstract

Over the last few years, with the increased importance of the internet in many domains, web development industry has seen ground breaking changes. To solve the challenge of business and technology change, models have become increasingly important in constructing application systems. For example, OMG’s Model Driven Architecture (MDA) uses models as building blocks to support application development. In this paper, we present the application of the MDA approach to model the CodeIgniter PHP framework. We developed the models used for transforming Platform Independent Model (PIM) to Platform Specific Model (PSM), using a UML class diagram as a source model to generate an XML file containing the core components of a CodeIgniter PHP framework.
