Centro de Investigación ProS A Technological Framework to support Model Driven Method Engineering Mario Cervera, Manoli Albert, Victoria Torres, Vicente Pelechano, Javier Cano, Begoña Bonet

Agenda 1. Context of the problem 2. Problem statement 3. Proposed solution 4. Current state of the work 5. Conclusions

1of1 Context of the problem  Method Engineering (ME)  The engineering discipline to design, construct and adapt methods, techniques and tools for the development of Information Systems (Brinkkemper, 1996)

1of1 Problem statement  Many theoretical proposals in ME  Lack of software support  Only one tool, MetaEdit+, has been commercialized  Main reason: the high complexity of developing CAME1 environments as they must support:  SPM2 specification  CASE tool construction 1 Computer Aided Method Engineering 2 Software Production Method

1of3 Proposed solution  We advocate for the use of Model-Driven techniques to tackle:  SPM specification by means of models  CASE tool construction by means of model transformations

2of3 Proposed solution  Methodological Framework to support the specification of SPMs and the generation of the CASE tool support  Being implemented in the context of Eclipse  Project

3of3 Proposed solution

1of4 Current state of the work  Method Design  SPM specification  EPF Composer editor  Method fragment integration  Repository client

2of4 Current state of the work  Method Configuration  Software asset association  Repository client

3of4 Current state of the work  Method Implementation  A M2T Transformation takes the SPM model and generates a Product Configuration File through which the CASE tool is obtained  This tool is a MOSKitt reconfiguration that only contains the required plugins to support the SPM  Product Support  Plugins enabling the manipulation of the SPM products  Software assets associated to the SPM elements during SPM the Method Configuration phase Support  Process Support  Project Manager Component

4of4 Current state of the work  Project Manager Component

1of1 Conclusions  Lack of software support in the ME field  Only one tool, MetaEdit+, has been commercialized  We aim at providing an integrated CAME environment that can be used in industrial projects  High complexity of developing CAME environments  We advocate for the use of MDD techniques  SPM specifications  Models  CASE tool construction  Model transformations
