Abstract

Component-Based Development (CBD) is an effective approach to develop software effectively and economically through reuse of software components. Model Driven Architecture (MDA) is a new software development paradigm where software is generated by a series of model transformations. By combing essential features of CBD and MDA, both the benefits of software reusability and development automation can be achieved in a single framework. In this paper, we propose a Component-based P Platform Independent Model (CB-PIM) and a UML profile for specifying component-based design in MDA framework. We suggest mapping rules to transform CB-PIM into Platform Specific Models (PSM). Once components are specified with our profile at the level of PIM, they can be automatically transformed into PSM and eventually source code implementation.
