Christoph Wienands and I are presenting a class for UML World 2005 in Austin Texas on June 16th.
This session will examine the two approaches to model-driven development that are currently dominating the discussions – Model Driven Architecture (MDA), trademark of the OMG, and Software Factories, as proposed by Microsoft. In this session, we will highlight the commonalities and more importantly the differences of the two approaches. Aspects that will be discussed include UML 2.0, Domain Specific Languages, and You will walk away with an in-depth understanding of the differences between the two approaches to solve the common goals of domain and model visualization, reuse of implementation assets and raising the level of abstraction.
