Abstract:
Currently software system development is under the conversion, where traditional code oriented software development is transformed into model driven approach. A lot of methods and tools are proposed to support main statements of the model driven software development. However, there do not exist mechanisms for notification of how much valuable are the Model Driven Architecture (MDA) support tools and how close they are to the main idea of model usage for software development. One of the possible solutions how to solve the problem of selection of appropriate MDA tool can be certification process similar to that in other industries. The paper proposes the framework for such certification and shows an application of it for several MDA support tools.
