Abstract
One of the challenges in Model Driven Architecture (MDA) is the variety
of tools which are not interoperable with each other. Also, a design flow
supporting different phases of MDA-based development is often missing. This
paper presents a tool chain and design flow for MDA-based Web Services
development. The presented tool chain covers modelling with domain-specific
Unified Modelling Language (UML) profiles, transformation of the UML models
into Web Services Definition Language (WSDL) files, and Java code generation.
The tool chain is validated in a case study where it is used in the
development of a web service called Resource Availability Service (RAS). In
the validation, the tool chain worked well, since the proportion of generated
code in RAS is over 95%. The residual 5% of the code includes manual
integration and business logic. User experiences indicate that using the tool
chain improves the developer productivity in Web Services development.
