Domain-Specific Modeling (DSM) is the latest approach to software
development, promising to greatly increase the speed and ease of
software creation. Early adopters of DSM have been enjoying productivity
increases of 500-1000 0n production for over a decade. This book
introduces DSM and offers examples from various fields to illustrate to
experienced developers how DSM can improve software development in their
teams. Two authorities in the field explain what DSM is, why it works,
and how to successfully create and use a DSM solution to improve
productivity and quality. Divided into four parts, the book covers:
background and motivation; fundamentals; in-depth examples; and creating
DSM solutions. There is an emphasis throughout the book on practical
guidelines for implementing DSM, including how to identify the necessary
language constructs, how to generate full code from models, and how to
provide tool support for a new DSM language. The example cases described
in the book are available the book’s Website, www.dsmbook.com, along
with, an evaluation copy of the MetaEdit+ tool (for Windows, Mac OS X,
and Linux), which allows readers to examine and try out the modeling
languages and code generators. Domain-Specific Modeling is an essential
reference for lead developers, software engineers, architects,
methodologists, and technical managers who want to learn how to create a
DSM solution and successfully put it into practice.
