LAB 5: Exploring Model-Driven Architecture (MDA)


STEPS:
1. Introduction to MDA:
• Model Driven Architecture (MDA) is a software design approach that separates
business and application logic from platform technology. It provides platform-
independent models of an application's business functionality and behavior, built
using UML and OMG modeling standards. This allows for interoperability within and
across platforms, allowing the business and technical aspects to evolve at their own
pace, responding to business needs and technology's new developments.

2. Practical Modelling:

3. Case Study Review:


• The Model Driven Architecture (MDA) initiative gains a considerable and growing
amount of interest in both academia and industry with the Unified Modeling
Language (UML) placed in the center of MDA. A successful MDA realization in
industry is determined by certain factors. In this paper, we identify key factors for
the efficient accomplishment of the MDA by means of an industrial case study. The
case study is performed in a context of a large IT company with distributed
development units developing complex systems. The factors identified are grouped
into two categories - associated with usage and development of an MDA-based
framework. The factors stem from different activities performed during the process
of MDA realization. We studied the process of MDA realization at the company and
we discuss the factors in the context of the process. In addition to the identified
process and factors, there was a need to investigate the importance of different
elements in the process and assess their perception in the team. The results of a
prioritization experiment performed in the course of the study show that language
customization plays a central role in MDA even though the customization was
initially perceived as a background activity by framework constructors.
