Title
Mod4J: a qualitative case study of model-driven software development
Abstract
Model-driven software development (MDSD) has been on the rise over the past few years and is becoming more and more mature. However, evaluation in real-life industrial context is still scarce. In this paper, we present a case-study evaluating the applicability of a state-of-the-art MDSD tool, MOD4J, a suite of domain specific languages (DSLs) for developing administrative enterprise applications. MOD4J was used to partially rebuild an industrially representative application. This implementation was then compared to a base implementation based on elicited success criteria. Our evaluation leads to a number of recommendations to improve MOD4J. We conclude that having extension points for hand-written code is a good feature for a model driven software development environment.
