Abstract

The Situational Method Engineering (SME) discipline emerged two decades ago to address the challenge of the in-house definition of software development methods and the construction of the corresponding supporting tools. Unfortunately, current SME approaches still have limitations that are hindering their adoption by industry. One of these limitations is that most approaches do not properly encompass two phases of the SME lifecycle, which refer to the method design and the method implementation. To address this limitation, this paper demonstrates how Model-Driven Development (MDD) techniques can contribute to successfully cover both phases. The proposal is illustrated by a real case study that is currently being used at the Valencian Regional Ministry of Infrastructure, Territory and Environment.
