MDA – Model Driven Architecture
Not a standard – a philosophyDefines an approach to using models in software development.”
Basically defines two important concepts:ModelsTransformations
MDA is NOT just generating executable code from UML
More Abstract Model
Less Abstract Model

Benefits of MDA
The system is described at different levels of abstractionEasier to understandEasier to update and modifyEasier to test
Models can be reused for different implementationsE.g. a PIM could be used to generate a Java and .NET PSMFuture proofing against changing technology
A consistent architectural approach is achievedSystems should be more scalable, have better performance, fewer inconsistenciesSystems should have less bugsEnable architects/ senior developers to enforce architecture
With tooling, it can save a lot of time

Transforms in Rational Software Architect
Supports two major sourcesUMLText
Transforms defined as eclipse plugins
User Interface for applying transforms
Wizards for transform authoring
Supports mapping or migration/morphing approaches
Support for marking up a model via UML Profiles (PIM + Markup)
Support for defining profiles
Support for sharing transforms via RAS
