Abstract

In recent years the model driven software development paradigm has gained popularity. For example, initial requirements expressed in terms of i* (iStar) models have been transformed into OO-Method conceptual models that allows the complete generation of the final application. Unfortunately, the non-functional requirements (NFRs) or softgoals present in the i* models have not been considered. In this paper we outline a new process, called OOM-NFR, which relies on the softgoals for the definition of appropriate configuration of the application to be generated. The set of transformation rules is expressed in QVT.
