Domain Specific Modeling (DSM) provides more expressiveness through visually expressing domain elements using Domain Specific Languages (DSL) that are typically captured by domain experts.
Why Choose MDD?
Adopting MDD techniques moves the developers� focus from coding to analysis reducing errors as well as time-to-market. This is because:
- MDD and DSM raise the level of abstraction beyond the current programming languages by using the same concepts from the problem domain.
- Model transformations is the mean through which models can be transformed from one level of abstraction and platform technical knowledge to the another, inserting new information each step of the way.
What will SECC offer me?
