Model-Driven Software Development

Handbook of Conceptual Modeling

Abstract

Software development is a complex and difficult task that requires the investment of significant resources and carries major risk of failure. For decades now, researchers have proposed “model-driven” approaches to improve the state of the art in software engineering. Software models are intended to improve communication among stakeholders and aid in the overall understanding both of a problem space and a proposed software solution that satisfies given requirements. As with architectural blueprints or miniature 3D models, software models make it possible to explore and test a design and its ramifications before investing in the actual build-out. The traditional approach to software development involves a modeling process – analysis, requirements specification, design – followed by an implementation process. In the traditional approach, programmers manually write software that conforms (more or less) to specifications described in software models; this process involves transformations that are often incomplete, awkward, and informal. The essence of model-driven software development is the idea that software models can go further than being mere blueprints, and constitute the basis for automatically or semiautomatically generating the software system itself. In this chapter, we survey various major approaches to model-driven software construction and illustrate how model-driven development works in practice.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Our argument is a special case of the assertion in [2.15] that “[m]odeling is essential to human activity because every action is preceded by the construction (implicit or explicit) of a model” (emphasis added).

  2. 2.

    This is analogous to compiling a FORTRAN program by translating it to assembly language, which is then assembled and linked. The assembler version is to “code” as the FORTRAN version is to “model”.

  3. 3.

    Bolchini and Garzotto discovered this in the domain of MDWE as well [2.16]; see Sect. 2.8.
