Abstract

This paper presents ADDS, a systematic approach to sofware development using Domain-Specific Languages (DSLs) and markup technologies. XML is used as a common descriptive framework for DSLs formulation, obtaining Domain Specific Markup Languages (DSMLs). According to ADDS, the construction of applications in a domain starts with the provision of suitable DSMLs. Then, the applications in such a domain are described by means of sets of structured documents conforming these DSMLs. Finally, the application is produced by processing this documentation according to an operationalization model called OADDS. Hence ADDS provides a systematic approach to software development based on the processing of XML documentation that can be used in a great variety of domains.
