Contents
Model-driven software development means modeling software at a higher level of abstraction using a domain-specific language. The code is generated automatically to a large extent. By this way, software development can be greatly accelerated and simplified. In addition to the applications of existing domain-specific languages and code generators, techniques and tools are presented for developing new languages and generators.
Qualification Goals
Aim of the module:
- Understanding the paradigm of model-driven software development,
- Modeling and model-driven development of application software,
- Knowledge of the core concepts and techniques of model-driven development,
- Understanding the possibilities and limitations of model-driven software development,
- Basic understanding of presented tools, deepened by exercises,
- Practice of scientific working methods (recognition, formulation, solving problems, training of abstraction skills),
- Training of oral communication skills in the exercises by practicing free speech in front of an audience and during discussion
Prerequisites
