A Model Driven Domain Engineering Method

This paper proposes an approach of organizing the development of a large software system. By domain analysis and design the method can provide a domain meta-model (DMM) based on the MOF model and a flexible and customizable domain specific software architecture (DSSA). In late domain implementation phase it can make use of DMM and DSSA to generate domain software. The method provides a good paradigm for automating software development that has flexibility, reusability, agility and productivity across the software life cycle. It can rapidly generate a new domain application without code programming when requirements changing. So the method can generate a domain software family, not only a single application. A major benefit of this approach to software development, as compared to the usual sequential "waterfall model" is the speed with which products can be brought to market.
