Project

Phönix Unlimited The Deutsches Reisebüro (travel agency) is developing a new booking and product maintenance system. The new software is using bleeding edge modeling technologies. The whole system is based on MagicDraw UML models, providing higher flexibility than the predecessor system. System clients are for example based on the Eclipse RCP UI-Framework.

Project Computer based maintenance of service catalogues A customer of i.S.X. is using catalogues for its services. These were first written and maintained as word document. To shorten release-periods a client application was developed, that was able to automatically create and maintain the catalogue by a database. If required, the electronic catalogue can be exported as pdf-document and/or HTML website, to create a print edition.

Project Replacement of Rational Rose in model driven development environment In this project a MDSD toolchain was developed to replace an existing legacy solution, consisting of Rational Rose and an in-house developed code generator. Existing models and charts were migrated to Xtext-models and GMF charts by using a migration tool. The new toolchain only consists of a MWE-based generator. In the last step RWE employees were provided specific know-how to maintain the new toolchain on their own.

Projects

Project AMOR During model driven software development different artefacts are created: (meta-)models, transformations, generators, editors, manually developed source code, etc… These artefacts are reliant on each other concerning their functionality (among others). They are existing in different versions (chronology) and variations (additional customizations). In addition there is competing access during team work. Current SCM-tools such as SVN do not provide necessary functions to enable efficient model driven software development. The aim of AMOR is, to create a suitable general model repository containing these and more functions.

Project IBYKUS APx development stage 2 IBYKUS AG is developing model based software for the public sector for many years already. The task was to support in migrating their development environment to Eclipse. The new environment consists of a set of Xtext-based editors which are generated from project specifications. The data for the generator is stored in a repository in a data base system.

The second stage comprises further extension of core components such as editors, navigator, repository connection and integration.

The task was to support in migrating their development environment to Eclipse. The new environment consists of a set of Xtext-based editors which are generated from project specifications. The data for the generator is stored in a repository in a data base system.

The first stage is a proof of concept. A navigator component was prepared to load models from a repository based on a data base. Model could be modified locally and written back into the repository. Inside the repository model are XML based. However, editing should be done text based using Xtext editors. Hence, transformations were required to be implemented. The editors required a massive customization of Xtext’s capabilities leading to improved features regarding code completion, syntax highlighting, model validation, outlining and navigation.

Project Extending an MDSD process with a possibility to create platform independent models (PIMs) by using natural language input.

In that diploma thesis a concept was developed that allowed for analyzation of text documents such as a product specification. The extracted information is used to generate models suitable for further processing, e.g. for software development. The concept shows a way of formalizing knowledge in natural language texts. .

Project Misys Channel Framework (MCF) Using generative software development MISYS was developing the application framework MCF and a modelling environment based on Eclipse, GMF, EMF and oAW. MCF provided its own UI widget library which was based on Swing components and middleware for connecting to webservices. The framework supported generating fat- or thin-clients with UI based on Swing or as AJAX-Application.

Initially the framework supported generation and rendering rich client Swing applications. The W3 PoC extended the application framework with the ability to generate and render web AJAX applications. The new component was able to reuse the API of the existing rich client renderers.

That’s done by running various standardized benchmarks such as SPEC or Netperf on the server boards. The test results are stored in a data base automatically and a web client can compare them with each other.
