Abstract

The mobile application development industry is increasingly growing up due to the intensive use of applications in mobile devices, most of them running Android Operating System. However, developing applications for mobile platforms demands additional worries such as code efficiency, interaction with device resources, as well as short time-to-market. Model-driven Engineering (MDE) combined with UML, as already used in software engineering, could provide abstraction and automation for mobile software developers. To support that, adequate tools and approaches are required. This paper presents a MDE approach for Android applications development, which includes UML-based modeling and code generation in order to facilitate and accelerate the development of mobile applications.
