Course Objectives This course will introduce model driven software development (MDD) principles, methodologies, and tools. The course will cover both practical and theoretical aspects. Students will develop a small scale metamodeling or MDD project.
Course Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • explain the principles and methods of model driven development
  • develop metamodels for domain specific modeling languages
  • define metamodel based model transformations
  • identify the advantages of software reusability
  • discuss about automatic code generation
  • use a metamodeling tool
Course Content Introduction to MDD; modeling languages; software reusability; domain specific modeling; metamodeling; model transformations; metamodeling tools; code generation; MOF (meta object facility); software components.
