Abstract

One of the major challenges in today's complex business environment is the delivery of a complete solution from business architecture design downstream to SOA IT realization. The IBM Service Oriented Modeling and Architecture (SOMA) methodology attempts to address this objective. Our project captures information from business architecture design and presents this information in a graphical user interface for its later utilization by the solution development team, compliant to the SOMA methodology. Our model-driven development (MDD) cycle consists of modeling with XML Schema Definition (XSD), generating code with Eclipse Model Framework (EMF) and Eclipse Graphical Model Framework (GMF), customizing the code, and testing the solution. The tool was tested on a supply chain management scenario. The results demonstrated the feasibility of capturing business design and using the artifacts for IT realization with MDD. Our overall MDD experience is discussed.
