Steering Model-Driven Development of Enterprise Information System through Responsibilities

Abstract

OMG proposes the MDA that promotes the ideas of modeling in UML and transforming UML models to code. But UML is not universal for every domain and the direct translation approach of the MDA is not adequate. In this paper, we introduce REST, an idea of using responsibilities as contextual information to instruct machines to generate software systems. First, we give an overview of RESTDA - a software development architecture for business based on the concept of REST. Then we describe a domain-specific language - Business Models. It helps developers to describe a business from a document-processing perspective. We also introduce a rule-based validation of consistency within Business Models. Finally, we describe the transformation mechanism of RESTDA. Our approach provides machines higher intelligence to generate source code for different contexts.
