Sisältö
Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) allows the development of applications based on the definition of models. MDE makes uses of Domain-Specific Modelling Languages (DSMLs), which are modeling languages defined for a specific domain. This allows users to perceive themselves as working directly with domain concepts. Domain-Specific Modeling Languages formalize the application structure, behavior, and requirements within particular domains. A DSML follows the domain abstractions and semantics, allowing modelers to perceive themselves as working directly with domain concepts. The definition of a DSML involves at least three aspects: the domain concepts and rules, the notation used to represent these concepts, and the semantics of the language. In this course, the students learn to create and apply a specific DSML in a given context. The course also discusses a selection of topical and emerging themes related to systems development.
