Software development process

摘要

A flexible component-based software system is developed by generating a UML model ( 3 ) in a specification phase ( 4 ). Components are generated in an implementation phase ( 4 ). The UML model ( 3 ) is transformed to a meta model. A runtime architecture service (RAS, 10 ) dynamically assembles a system in runtime according to the meta model. A modelling tool ( 15 ) modifies the meta model via an API ( 34 ) and a meta modeller ( 31 ). This allows dynamic re-configuration of the system.
