Arquitetura de apoio à integração de Linha de Produto de Software e Engenharia Dirigida a Modelos

Abstract

This thesis investigates the problem of how integrate the architectural point of view, conceptual and design models to maintain the necessary differences enable various levels of abstractions compatible with the size, complexity and the field of software families. The starting point to obtain a problem solution is to investi-gate the integration of software product line (SPL) and model-driven engineering (MDE) by individually provide support for this purpose; but little investigated for a family of domain specific languages as application domain. Thus, this work aims to present a support method to architectural modelling software families based on MDE compound two components: (i) integration scheme between the engineering and (ii) the framework architectural. The scheme elicits the integration actually takes place and highlights the possibilities of application. But the architectural fray mework complements this integration scheme and helps design architectural views and integration between them. To conduct the research, ARDev methodology (Agile Research Development) was used which aims to assist the management and produc-tion of research artifacts. The proposed method is assessed by proofs of concept in forest dynamics domain and estimate carbon DSL's, selected by presenting require-ments and processes consistent with the complexity of observation and evaluation method of the implications thereof on a practical application. The results indicate that the integration between engineering favors the structuring and adaptation of architecture and the framework helps the designer to choose, quickly develop and test approaches used for integration between engineering and architectural retrieve information taken to a domain.
