Driving Architectures With UML 2.0: The TAU Generation2 Approach to Model Driven Architecture

Overview As the world's demand for software inexorably increases, one needs to increase the quantity and improve the quality of the software that one produces. There are two major technology trends that aim to address one's insatiable appetite for software: automation and outsourcing. This white paper describes a technical approach based on proven engineering principles that primarily addresses the trend towards software automation, but can also be applied towards software outsourcing. This model driven approach to software development described here, which is based on architectural blueprint languages such as UML 2.0, and automated by power tools such as TAU Generation2, can substantially improve software productivity and quality.
